The Game

En savoir plus sur le livre

THE GAME is a super-realistic novel intended for mature adult readers. Set in Las Vegas and New England, the central story line follows an ambitious prostitute's attempt to separate a middle-aged school bus driver from his presumably sizable inheritance. The principal characters' tenuous grip on reality is tested throughout the novel's ten episodes, as shifting circumstances, expectations and relationships disrupt their efforts to maintain emotional equilibrium. Psychological elements underscore the impact of childhood trauma on adult personality, reinforced by successive betrayals, real and imagined.
