Over My Dead Body
The Sensational Age of the American Paperpack, 1945-1955
Lee Server
The American paperback went through a brief but gloriously subversive era during the 1940s and ’50s when publishers wooed post-World War II veterans with cheap, pocket-sized paperbacks sporting lurid covers and shocking titles. But this era also spawned such great writers as Mickey Spillane, Philip K. Dick and Jack Kerouac. 100 photographs.
