Blue cloth boards with black text on spine and front board, head of spine is quite bumped resulting in a short tear to cloth and creasing to first few pages at top edge of hinge.

James Thomas Farrell (b.1904 - d.1979) was an Irish-Catholic author; a novelist, short-story writer, journalist and poet, a political activist (Trotskyist, member of the Socialist Worker Party, and later the Workers' Party).
