The Sinking of the Odradek Stadium and Other Novels
New York: Harper & Row, Publishers, 1975.
First Edition. Hardcover.
This collection brings together Harry Mathews’ first two novels – The Conversions (1962) and Tlooth (1966) – and his third novel, The Sinking of the Odradek Stadium, originally serialized in The Paris Review. It is the first publication in book form of his third novel. Although Mathews's first three novels share common characteristics in style – wildly inventive narratives, complex subplots, and dark humor – the stories and characters are not connected.
