  • La Biblia de neón es la primera novela de John Kennedy Toole, escrita a la edad de 16 años. Su principal atractivo es la primera mirada al escritor que más tarde escribiría La conjura de los necios. (es)
  • La Bible de néon (titre original : The Neon Bible) est un roman écrit par John Kennedy Toole lorsqu'il avait seize ans.
