En savoir plus sur le livre
Cheap paper and hard covers, the paperbacks of the postwar period were intended to sell in large numbers, and they did. Surprisingly this period of British literary history has never been documented before. So here at last it is, a book for the scholar, the collector or the reader. Steve Holland's study of PAPERBACKS will evoke memories for some, and enlighten others, of the blossoming of the modern paperback from the MUSHROOM JUNGLE of postwar back street publishing houses.This book reveals the origins and history of these publishers, together with the story of popular authors and artists of the period. In so doing it has done much to preserve an endangered part of our recent cultural heritage.
