42nd Parallel

"This novel is a satire on the tremendous haphazardness of life in the expansionist America we all have known....The stories of the five characters do not all touch--which is one indication that Mr. Dos Passos has not finished with them. While one realizes that Mr. Dos Passos may have left his book at loose ends for esthetic purposes--to bring home to the reader the haphazardness of life in a social milieu that shifts as the sands shift--one is left dissatisfied."Dos Passos, John is the author of '42nd Parallel' with ISBN 9780884113447 and ISBN 0884113442.
