About This Item
England 1999. The authorss latest novel is subtitled From the Diaries of a Texan Bankruptcy Judge. The judge in this case is a certian Erwin Caldwell, the narrator of this roman noir, who leads the reader through a wildly discursive romp that is also a meditation on the abiding presence of evil in the human heart. The year is 1992, and the rivers in and around rain-soaked Austin are flooding their banks. The life of the city is thrown into confusion, and Judge Caldwell, a comfortably married man, has an affair with the owner of small bookstore. His stepdaughter returns home after being denied tenure at Harvard, her little boy in tow, and Caldwell learns of the death by drowning of the Belgian philosopher-semantisicist Jan van rouwers, revered by a generation of Texas university students. Murder or suicide? An intriguing book, this author has an uncompromising vision of the utter complexity of modern life., English, Year1999, Illust. B/W0, Illust. Color0, ISBN 0811213951, Code 5872.
