The Beetle Leg, John Hawkes's second full-length novel, was first published by New Directions in 1951. After years of underground existence, this brilliant novel is emerging as a classic of visionary writing and still remains Hawkes's only work devoted solely to American life. As a 'surrealist Western\" (Newsweek), and a violent and poetic portrayal of \"a landscape of sexual apathy\" (Albert J.
