Description
Spiegelman's dark and stylish drawings bring new life to Joseph Moncure March's 1928 poem, The Wild Party. The inventive page designs offer a striking contrast to the staccato rhythm of this hard-boiled jazz-age tragedy told in syncopated rhyming couplets. The result is a poem that can stop readers in their tracks, its impact lasting long after finishing the book. When first published, Louis Untermeyer praised The Wild Party as "repulsive and fascinating, vicious and vivacious, uncompromising, unashamed . . . and unremittingly powerful".
