A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode, Dr. Douglas Cowie and his guest, documentary filmmaker Mark Blottner, discuss another great Chicago novel, The Man with the Golden Arm by Nelson Algren. Published in 1949, it tells the story of a World War II veteran's struggle with morphine addiction, and in so doing paints a portrait of a marginal neighborhood in Chicago and its people. Check out Mark Blottner's documentary, "Nelson Algren: The End is Nothing, The Road is All" (2015) at nelsonalgrentheroadisall.com.
