GREENFIELD McKENNA (1928-1989)
An obscure, Iowa-based writer, McKenna had and has a small but loyal following for his work. Though he is no longer with us, his legacy of literature lives on. McKenna's grace, poetry, and bizarre sense of humor enliven the nine books with which he gifted his captive audience. Our first acquisition at Idle Valley Press was his entire catalogue, long out of print. We hope you enjoy his work as much as we do.
