When the ATROCITY EXHIBITION was originally printed (1970),
Nelson Doubleday saw a copy and was so horrified he ordered the entire press
run shredded. Two years later Grove Press brought out a small hardback printing
re-titled Love and Napalm: Export USA. Now RE/Search brings out an
illustrated, large-format edition of this notorious work, augmented with four
recently written stories, plus extensive annotations--written by the author,
never before published--which clarify and illuminate this exhilarating,
prophetic masterpiece.
