"The Game for Real opens with 'The game of quartering,' where an unnamed hero discovers that he has a double. And surely, if he has a double, then his double must have a double, and so on ... What follows is a grotesquely hilarious, snowballing spree through Paris.

He will stop at nothing--even if he discovers that he's only chasing his own tail"--Cover fla
