Rocket to the Moon; a romance in three acts

[nice clean book, with minimal shelfwear; jacket browned at spine, tiny tear and associated tiny crease at top of front panel, modest chip (paper loss) at top of spine]. (B&W photographs) Odets play, originally produced by the Group Theatre in 1938, about a dentist who's carrying on with his young assistant, while his business and his marriage are in a shambles. "Rocket" was less overtly political than his earlier work, and less successful than his previous play, "Golden Boy." ("Rocket" ran just 131 performances on Broadway, about half as long as "Golden Boy," which by then was already headed for the silver screen, just as Odets himself had decamped for Hollywood.)
