A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Things have not been going well for Dez. He’s broke, jobless, angry and without a future. Then he happens to see an episode of “Tovah in the Afternoon” featuring the fabulously successful memoirist Jasper Ulrickson, and devises a diabolical scheme to ruin him...

What ensues is a descent into psychological nightmare, one lit with dark flashes of humor and illuminating tragedy. Like watching Othello fall to Iago’s masterful manipulations, we are riveted by this spectacle of an upright man undone by envy and the implacable demands of desire. A risk-taking and courageous novel, unsparing in its dissection of the erotic impulse, Undone speaks to our era’s corrosive fascination with the cult of celebrity, money and the compulsion to get ahead at all costs.
