Barry N. Malzberg’s daring and controversial debut novel

In the tradition of Vladimir Nabokov, Barry N. Malzberg draws his readers over the precipice of rationality into a realm where dreams are real—a realm in which the hero, a humble investigator for the New York City
Welfare Department, finds himself married to Sophia Loren, seducing Elizabeth
Taylor, and seduced by Brigitte Bardot—all in one tortured weekend.
