description: Two novels by Nathaniel West published together in one volume for the first time. Miss Lonelyhearts, a newspaper advice columnist answers letters from desperate, Sick of it All, Disillusioned. What is a joke at first turns into a nightmare that sets the bar for nightmares. The Day of the Locust is quite possibly the defining tale of Hollywood's underbelly.
