hardcover, 5½" x 8¾", with dust jacket. 314 pages Translated from the German by Leila Vennewitz. At the centre of this panoramic novel is an ageing newspaper proprietor who becomes a target for the new breed of terrorist. This portrait of a disintegrating society, framed in Boll's mastery of narrative technique, probes painfully deep, raises questions we would prefer not to ask - but, in the modern world, cannot avoid. Boll's central question is simple: What price are we prepared for freedom? Ours is an ex-library copy in transparent protective covering, with usual stamps, stickers, barcode, etc. VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD price-clipped dust jacket. Seller Inventory # 35120
