"The best novel to come out of America-or England-for a
generation."
-V.S. Pritchett, The New York Review of Books
In this unique noir masterpiece by the incomparable Saul Bellow,
a young man is sucked into the mysterious, heat-filled vortex of
New York City. Asa Leventhal, a temporary bachelor with his wife
away on a visit to her mother, attempts to find relief from a
Gotham heat wave, only to be accosted in the park by a
down-at-the-heels stranger who accuses Leventhal of ruining his
life. Unable to shake the stranger loose, Leventhal is led by his
own self-doubts and suspicions into a nightmare of paranoia and
fear.
