<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>New edition of Gil Orlovitz's neglected and long out of print experimental opus, Milkbottle H, originally published in 1967 by Calder & Boyars.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>New edition of Gil Orlovitz's neglected and long out of print experimental opus, <em>Milkbottle H</em>. Originally published in 1967 by Calder & Boyars, it was written as the second installment in a trilogy of semiautobiographical experimental novels set primarily in Philadelphia, chronicling the life of protagonist Lee Emanuel during the early and mid-20th century. The first installment in this trilogy, <em>Ice Never F</em>, was actually published later (1970) and recently reissued by Tough Poets Press. The third installment, <em> Will Frank Marry Mary?</em>, has never been published.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Not since Joyce has anyone used words with such magnanimous clarity.... This book is one of the great, if not the greatest, literary achievements of our time."<br /> -- <em>Cork Examiner</em> (UK)<br /> <br /> "<em>Milkbottle H</em> is a great book, an experimental novel-into-poem. For anyone interested in the widening possibilities of the modern novel, or in gaining insight into a tragicomic human experience, the reward is immense."<br /> -- <em>London Tribune</em> (UK)<br /> <br /> "A major work of fiction by any standards. It has a breadth and intricacy of vision, an audacity of technique, and an unwearying energy of expression that put it in the very front rank. <em>Milkbottle H</em> is a major event in the history of the American imagination."<br /> -- <em>The Scotsman</em> (UK)<br /> <br /> "A new genre that no longer experiments with form but discards all form and concentrates on the presentation of immediately felt experience or, more accurately, allows that experience to present itself."<br /> -- <em>Chicago Tribune</em></p><br>
