1963Best.-Nr. DC826NY: Pantheon 1963. Book. Very Good to Near Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 1st printing 1963. "Wilson a bored middle-aged banker is 'reborn' by the 'company' into a new identity. Adjusting to his new life he is even less happy than he was before and gradually understands that the price paid for a second chance is too high. A Kafka-like exploration of the depersonalization of modern life. The benign indifference bureaucratic efficiency and curteous reasonableness of the company are more disturbing than overt malevolence. John Frankenheimer's 1966 film version with Rock Hudson as the protagonist was one of the scariest films of that decade."
