"A baffling, fascinating fiction." -Kirkus Reviews

"Beautiful and frightening - the most transfixing novel I've read in the last two years." -Mikal Gilmore

"The characters in Delirium breathe, and their vitality is what makes the book such a page turner... never less than entertaining... It's clearly art." -The New York Times Book Review

"Extraordinary... Cooper leads us into a sort of urban Hades located beneath the streets, into which secretaries and office boys descend, never to be seen again." -Saturday Night ("Book of the Month")

"Delirium is ... penetrating and deliciously camp.... a display of the author's virtuosity, at other times a breath-taking demonstration of how far the novel can be twisted without cracking." -The Globe and Mail

Présentation de l'éditeur

When the elderly Ariel Price, world-famous architect, receives a letter from a would-be biographer announcing his intention to move forward without Price's approval or authorization, he decides that there is only one response: the biographer will have to die.
