The Vicious Circle: The Story Of The Algonquin Round Table is a non-fiction book written by Margaret Case Harriman. The book is a detailed account of the literary and cultural group known as the Algonquin Round Table, which was active in New York City in the 1920s and 1930s. The group was made up of writers, journalists, actors, and other cultural figures who met regularly at the Algonquin Hotel to discuss and debate various topics.The book provides a comprehensive history of the group, including its founding members, its meetings and discussions, and its impact on American culture. It also includes profiles of many of the key members of the group, including Dorothy Parker, Robert Benchley, and Harold Ross.Throughout the book, Harriman explores the various personalities and relationships within the group, as well as the controversies and scandals that often surrounded them. She also delves into the group's contributions to American literature and culture, including their work in journalism, theater, and film.Overall, The Vicious Circle provides a fascinating look into one of the most influential cultural groups of the early 20th century, and sheds light on the personalities and ideas that shaped American literature and culture during this time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
