1963DC826NY: 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.
