Modern Occasions: a quarterly of literature and ideas of culture & politics. Fall 1971, Volume 1 Number 4

Cambridge, MA: Modern Occasions, 1970-71. Magazine. Pp.461-647, softbound journal in 9x6 inch stylized wraps, find a tiny inked squiggle (and a touch of dust) on front cover, an else near-new copy: sound, else clean and unmarked.

Interviewee this issue is William Styron. Find Roth on Nixon, unimpressed reviews of Norman Mailer's Prisoner of Sex and the pusilanimously delayed publication of Plath's Bell Jar. Sartre's "Class Consciousness in Flaubert" (part II, continued from Spring 1971) is probably the most formidable essay here; Sartre had no alimonies to pay (Mailer racked up six) and no suicidal tendencies.
