The Brooklyn Novels:

Summer in Williamsburg, Homage to Blenholt, Low Company

By Daniel Fuchs.

Introduction by Jonathan Lethem.

The novel Low Company was filmed as The Gangster a.k.a. Low Company (1949), directed by Gordon Wiles.

Published 2007.

Published by Black Sparrow Press.

ISBN 13: 9781574232103

ISBN 10: 157423210X

ASIN: 157423210X

Description:

Three classic novels in one volume: Summer in Williamsburg (1934), Homage to Blenholt (1936), and Low Company (1937).

Fuchs wrote, “I devoted myself simply to the tenement: the life in the hallways, the commotion at the dumbwaiters, the assortment of characters in the building, their strivings and preoccupations, their troubles.” These novels are as alive today as the day they were first printed, as exuberant. There are few novelists in America today who possess Fuchs’s talent, his energy, his sense of life.
