About This Item
Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1999. Trade Paperback in Near Fine Condition. Touch of wear to corner tips and small spot to edge of text block, else Fine. Clean, spotless book, solid binding. Cover art by Mike Golding. An epic tale--when German-Australian sailor Friedrich "Freddy" Boettcher is shanghaied aboard a German Navy battleship at the outbreak of World War I, the sight of frenzied mobs burning Armenian women to death in Turkey causes him, through moral shock, to lose his sense of touch. This mysterious disability which he has to hide, is both a protection and a curse during much of his picaresque life as both a leper and a superman. An internationally praised modern epic. 272 pages. 9.25 x 6.25 inches. 1999, Farrar, Straus and Giroux
