First Edition (stated). Blue paper covers with flaps, orange spine. 277 pages. Front flap photo of a very young James Gunn. The author's first and only novel. The 1947 film noir \"Born to Kill\" was based on this story. Gunn went on to write for movies and television.  About this book Robin Durie wrote, \"It has a freely developed plot and an absolutely extraordinary tone, pushing each scene towards a violent, ironic and macabre paroxysm... an unexpected dimension, a poetic depth...  Of course, nothing like this has ever been written before. The parody is wildly inconsistent, but Deleuze is surely right when he says that, by this means, Gunn creates directions in the real which are wholly new.\" \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"details\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"heading\"\u003eBook Condition: \u003c\/span\u003eGood: Edgewear.
