Description
At sixty-four, Mickey Sabbath is still defiantly antagonistic and exceedingly libidinous. Sex is an obsession and a principle, an instrument of perpetual misrule in his daily existence. But after the death of his long-time mistress, he embarks on a turbulent journey into his past, bereft and grieving, tormented by the ghosts of those who loved and hated him. As he navigates a succession of farcical disasters, Sabbath's world begins to unravel. His actions become increasingly erratic, taking him to the brink of madness and extinction. This is a story of one man's descent into chaos, where the lines between reality and fantasy are constantly blurred. A powerful exploration of the human condition, Sabbath's Theater is a darkly comedic and deeply unsettling novel that probes the complexities of the human psyche.
