The
Unfortunates,
by B. S. Johnson
One
of the lost classics of the 1960s, and a legendary experiment in form, The
Unfortunates is B.S. Johnson's famous "book in a box" in
which the chapters are presented unbound, to be read in any order the
reader chooses. A sportswriter, sent to a small town on a weekly assignment,
finds himself confronted by ghosts from his past when he disembarks
at the train station. One of the key works of a novelist now
undergoing an enormous revival of interest, The Unfortunates is now
available in a beautiful new edition with an introduction by Jonathan
Coe.
