Reviews
Combines a narcotic literary ease with a knuckle-whitening tension--like a roller coaster ride taken on codeine., A tale of Borgesian complexity...there is a pleasing interconnectedness to the plot that will delight jigsaw fanatics as they watch the story fit together with satisfying clicks.

Synopsis
The Horned Man opens with a man losing his place in a book, then deepens into a dark and terrifying tale of a man losing his place in the world. As Lawrence Miller--an English expatriate and professor of gender studies--tells the story of what appears to be an elaborate conspiracy to frame him for a series of brutal killings, we descend into a world of subtly deceptive appearances where persecutor and victim continually shift roles, where paranoia assumes an air of calm rationality, and where enlightenment itself casts a darkness in which the most nightmarish acts occur. As the novel races to its shocking conclusion, we follow Miller as he traverses the streets of Manhattan and the decaying suburbs beyond, in terrified pursuit of his pursuers. Written with sinuous grace and intellectual acuity, The Horned Man is an extraordinary, unforgettable first novel by an acclaimed writer and poet of unusual power.

    Great seller, exactly as pictured/described. quick shipping, well packaged. Books arrived in very, very good shape. A very good value for the price. Book was shipped sepeartely from the main package (4 books total) which caused some confusion when receiving them, but I figured it out. 2 tracking numbers actually used (2 packages), but only one was listed.

    Fantastic price for this item! Great seller, and the item arrived as described. It arrived in an unpadded mailer. Additionally, thank you for having a listing with *accurate* information about the presence of writing inside the book. (It explicitly said it didn't, which was clear to read and much appreciated!)! The book itself appears well-read, but is a clean internal copy, which works for my purpose :)

    Books are just as shown in the pictures. Though a bit dirtier than expected, the price was right. Since the seller gave the package, which was well packed, directly to USPS, instead of an intermediate carrier, it arrived very quickly. I would buy from this seller again.
