==Posthumously published works== After Algren died, it was discovered that the article about Hurricane Carter had grown into a novel, ''The Devil's Stocking'', which was published posthumously in 1983.<ref name="bandw">{{cite web |url=http://www.kirjasto.sci.fi/nalgren.htm |title=Nelson Algren |website=Books and Writers (kirjasto.sci.fi) |first=Petri |last=Liukkonen |publisher=[[Kuusankoski]] Public Library |location=Finland |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061205023601/http://kirjasto.sci.fi/nalgren.htm |archive-date=December 5, 2006 |url-status=dead }}</ref> In September 1996, the book ''[[Nonconformity (book)|Nonconformity]]'' was published by [[Seven Stories Press]], presenting Algren's view of the difficulties surrounding the 1956 film adaptation of ''The Man With the Golden Arm''. ''Nonconformity'' also presents the belief system behind Algren's writing and a call to writers everywhere to investigate the dark and represent the ignored. ''The Neon Wilderness'' and ''The Last Carousel'' were also reprinted by Seven Stories Press and recognized as the [[Library Journal]] Editors' Best Reprints of 1997. In 2009, Seven Stories then published ''Entrapment and Other Writings'', a major collection of previously unpublished writings that included two early short stories, "Forgive Them, Lord," and "The Lightless Room," and the long unfinished novel fragment referenced in the book's title. In 2019, [[Blackstone Audio]] released the complete library of Algren's books as audiobooks. And in 2020 Olive Films released ''Nelson Algren Live'', a performance film of Algren's life and work starring [[Willem Dafoe]] and [[Barry Gifford]], among others, produced by the Seven Stories Institute.{{Citation needed|date=June 2024}}<ref>{{cite web |title="Entrapment and Other Writings" |url=https://www.sevenstories.com/books/3081-entrapment-and-other-writings |website=Seven Stories Press }}</ref>
