About This Item
London: Jonathan Cape, 1991. First Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Amis's story is about the soul from the body of a dying doctor, who had worked in Nazi concentration camps escapes, the doctor's conciousness begins living the doctor's life backward following "time's arrow". "This literary device is handled so skillfully that living backwards becomes not only natural but a perfect metaphor for the Nazis' perverted logic. If he can't finally probe to the bottom of a mind that embraces atrocities, Amis has nevertheless written a thought-provoking, compelling book."---Barbara Hoffert, "Library Journal
