A beautiful 65th anniversary paperback edition of the landmark
literary work by acclaimed author Paul Bowles.
In this classic work of psychological terror, Paul Bowles
examines the ways in which Americans apprehend an alien
culture--and the ways in which their incomprehension destroys them.
The story of three American travelers adrift in the cities and
deserts of North Africa after World War II, The Sheltering Sky is
at once merciless and heartbreaking in its compassion. It etches
the limits of human reason and intelligence--perhaps even the
limits of human life--when they touch the unfathomable emptiness
and impassive cruelty of the desert.
