"Queer People" is widely considered a Hollywood Novel of surpassing influence. Howard Hughes acquired the scathing novel's screen rights but it was never filmed. The book quickly went through eleven printings in less than a year. This copy is in a near-fine example of the contemporary Grosset & Dunlap dust jacket, issued shortly after publication. Rare in any kind of dust jacket. Hardcover
