AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Study of a second-rate French writer who commits a double murder and a robbery, implicating another man who is found guilty of the crime. Frustrated by the lack of recognition for the genius of his crime he publishes a 'fictional' confession under his true name, but while the story is praised he is not. When he confesses to the police he is locked up as a madman ... stark; coldness well conveyed. (PB)
