- Summary:
- Imagine a place where you can go to decide whether you wish to live or die. And you have exactly twenty-four hours to decide. Through one devastating, snowy New Year's Day, Wolf Walker, the director of The Suicide Academy, struggles to survive - goaded by his black, subtly anti-Semitic assistant Gilliatt, and thrown by the arrival of Jewel, his beautiful gentile ex-wife, and her lover. It is a story the San Francisco Chronicle calls "so free of the obvious, so profoundly amusing and amusingly profound".
