HOUSEHOLD, GEOFFREY; NELSON, VICTORIA (INTRODUCTION BY)

Rogue Male

New York, New York Review Books. 2007. (ISBN: 9781590172438) Trade Paperback , 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. xv, 182 pp.; 21 cm. First published, 1939. Tight, clean copy. "Passing through a foreign country, a professional big game hunter finds himself wondering whether he might be able to infiltrate the local dictator's compound, target the dictator, perhaps take him down. He has his target in his sites--should he follow through?==when he is seized by security, imprisoned, tortured, and condemned to death. And yet he escapes. He flees though enemy territory and succeeds at last in reaching his native England, only to realize that at home, too, he cannot be safe: a mere border will not divert his pursuers from their revenge; the British government cannot protect him without seeming to endorse his actions. He has no chance but to go under the radar, to find a spot for himself outside the bounds of society, to retreat as a fox does to its earth. He is a hunter. Who should know better how to escape pursuit? Soon, however, our hero discovers that he is dealing with men who are no less out of the ordinary than he is. Geoffrey Household's masterly command of suspense is everywhere evident in the pages of Rogue Male. At the same time, the book--described by the author as a 'bastard offspring of Stevenson and Conrad'--is an astonishing exploration of the lure of violence, the psychology of survivalism, and the call of the wild. / Geoffrey Household (1900-1988) was born in Bristol and educated at Magdalen College, Oxford. He worked all over the world, including Eastern Europe, the US, the Middle East and South America as, among other things, a banker, a salesman, and an encyclopedia writer. He served in British intelligence in World War II. His other works include A Rough Shoot, Watcher in the Shadows, Rogue Justice and an autobiography, Against the Wind." - Publisher.Publisher. Fine.
