I did a little research and found that the abridged version was first published in 1958, the year after the novel came out, in order to coincide with the film adaptation released at the time.
Long out of print, I found some copies on half.com and ordered one up, only to find, upon its arrival in the mail, that I'd ordered the abridged version. The unconditional love of Ginnie for Dave leads to a tragedy in the calm Parkman.
Might also be named The Town of Liars.

Some Came Running is the first of seven films in which Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin would appear together; its making commemorated the beginning of a … With Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Shirley MacLaine, Martha Hyer.
Even though most of the characters are not likable, with a few exceptions, they do come alive.It's nominally set in a small town in Southern Illinois, but if you've ever lived in any American small town, you'll recognize a lot of familiar elements.
Clearly written and smooth-going, but still gives you creeps and warmth and terror ... and hope.read the short movie version at least 30 years ago. December 31st 1979 Some come running - just turn and walk away. I enjoyed it, despite the structural flaws.Great book, James Jones is one of the best U.S.A. authors but also and the underrated!! Dave, the main character is the person the story revolves around.
That these two were not only inextricable, but were actually one and the same. Sorry.Just didn't like it.

Some Came Running, American dramatic film, released in 1958, that was especially noted for the performances by Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin—in their first screen pairing—and Shirley MacLaine. He meets and befriends various different characters and tries to figure out what to do with his life.
In the post-war, the alcoholic and bitter veteran military and former writer Dave Hirsch (Frank Sinatra) returns from Chicago to his hometown Parkman, Indiana. Welcome back.
I do recommend this book, and will probably read From Here To Eternity. Might also be named The Town of Liars. Fantastic character driven novel centered around a small town in Illinois between World War 2 and the Korean War.
I am yet under the spell Some Came Running put on me fifty-two years ago.
So this novel requires an investment of time and patience.Having thoroughly enjoyed "From Here to Eternity", I looked forward to this read. This original edition takes the reader deeper into the story. Goodreads helps you keep track of books you want to read. About a World War Two veteran coming home, and the less then top notch people he found to hang around with.

James Jones (novel), John Patrick, :-( His first book, even though published after his two runaway hits.
!I chose this book because of the movie, starring Frank Sinatra as Dave Hirsh, Dean Martin as 'Bama Dillert, and Shirley MacLaine as Ginnie Moorehead.
There are three editions. And, personally I enjoyed the movie more - just because it was quicker! Ambitious but flawed novel published in 1957 but written about the after WWII period and ends at the Korean Conflict.
