This edition presents the complete text of John Barth's first novel, including those passages deleted in previous editions and "the original and correct ending to the story," which was changed as a condition of the book's first publication.
Written in 1955 when the author was twenty-four, The Floating Opera makes it clear that Barth was always peculiarly Barth. This novel is part of the same cloth that made The End of the Road, The Sot-Weed Factor and Giles Goat-Boy.
In other words, it is irresistible!
