I had a lot of jobs in Los Angeles Harbor because our family was poor and my father was dead. My first job was ditchdigging a short time after I graduated from high school.

Very good. Tight, square, uncreased spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Very little shelf-wear. Black Sparrow Press began posthumously publishing Fante's then out-of-print works in the late 1970s, at the suggestion of house favorite Charles Bukowski ('Fante was my god, ' he said), who had happened upon the writer's work in the LA Public Library. The Road to Los Angeles, Fante's first novel and chronologically the second in the Arturo Bandini saga, went unpublished until 1985. Signature BSP matte cover and industry-reshaping format; designed by the press's untrained virtuoso Barbara Martin. 164 pp.
