The publisher on this edition

In this experimental trilogy, Dos Passos uses " camera eye" and " newsreel" sections to create a fragmented atmosphere. Through the testimony of numerous characters, both fictional and historical figures, he buids up a composite picture of American society in the first quarter of the 20th century.
