Customer Reviews

In which our hero, A,

is arrested, tried, convicted, condemned and absolved. All in absentia!This Kafka-esque book is unusual and worth reading.Wheldon, a British physician, wrote an earlier book, also starring the mysterious A, entitled The Course of Instruction. This is an important book and deserves to be in print at all times.
