Warlock — Oakley Hall

“[A]mong the finest of American novels" -- Thomas Pynchon

This “brilliant novel of the violent West" first published in the 1950s offers a literary take on the American Western (San Francisco Chronicle)

Oakley Hall's legendary Warlock revisits and reworks the traditional conventions of the Western to present a raw, funny, hypnotic, ultimately devastating picture of American unreality. First published in the 1950s, at the height of the McCarthy era, Warlock is not only one of the most original and entertaining of modern American novels but a lasting contribution to American fiction.
