Acceptable Losses

Boards. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. by the author of Rich Man Poor Man. Roger Damon is at the peak of his career: successful, well-liked, happily married. An ordered decent life. Until the phone call. A strange voice, full of loathing and menace. A voice that is enough to jolt Damon from his trance of happiness on to a downward path of shattered confidence as he comes to see all too clearly the frailty of his previous certainties. The blows rain in: an old friend dies, a woman he once knew well is killed. And all the while the threatening calls continue. Drinking heavily, his professional life is endangered, his downward path steepens and spirals down into a near madness, hallucination and physical collapse. Yet this process of destruction is checked as a new honesty of insight revives his will to survive. But to survive now at a level of more modest, truer self-knowledge. 'YOU'VE BEEN WARNED, I MAY NOT CALL AGAIN" IF A DEATH THREAT CAME IN THE NIGHT, WOULD YOU KNOW WHO WANTED TO KILL YOU?; Artikel-Nr. 019692
