1929 : A NOVEL OF THE JAZZ AGE (see review)

A new book, written by Frederick Turner,  has just been released,  The
opening sentences are:

 "On the anvil of the cornbelt's summer sun the crowd sizzles at the
riverfront park in Davenport.   The gaunt-framed old man stands slightly
separate from them, his back turned on the bandshell where the Natural Gas Jass Band races through  Muskrat Ramble."
