Book description
Leventhal is a natural victim; a man uncertain of himself, never free
from the nagging suspicion that the other guy may be right. So when he
meets a down-at-heel stranger in the park one day and finds himself
being accused of ruining the man's life, he half believes it. He can't
shake the man loose, can't stop himself becoming trapped in a mire of
self doubt, can't help becoming ... a victim. Saul Bellow s dazzling
career has been marked with numerous literary prizes, including the 1976
Nobel Prize, and the Gold Medal for the Novel. His work includes
Herzog, More Die of Heartbreak, Mosby's Memoirs and Other Stories,
Mr Sammler's Planet, Seize The Day
and the essay To Jerusalem and Back
. He died in 2005.
