Fiction
A ruthless dissection of American life in the late 1960s,
Play It as It Lays captures the mood of an entire
generation, the ennui of contemporary society reflected in
spare prose that blisters and haunts the reader. Set in a
place beyond good and evil-literally in Hollywood, Las
Vegas, and the barren wastes of the Mojave Desert, but
figuratively in the landscape of an arid soul-it remains
more than three decades after its original publication a
profoundly disturbing novel, riveting in its exploration of
a woman and a society in crisis and stunning in the
still-startling intensity of its prose.
