description: FIRST MCGRAW-HILL PAPERBACK EDITION. 1987 MASS MARKET PAPERBACK, Peter De Vries (The Blood of the A Novel). A masterpiece of literate lunacy, lascivousness, and love. Earl Peckham's highbrow novel has sold only three copies, and he had failed with the ladies. D riven by frustration, he sets out across America to find his three readers. When, in Omaha, he meets Poppy, the author of his publisher's bestselling "trash" novel, an affair of sublime incongruity ensues. - Google Books
