Book Description: Penguin Books Ltd, United Kingdom, 2005. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 195 x 129 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Ramsay is a man twice born, a man who has returned from the hell of the battle-grave at Passchendaele in World War I decorated with the Victoria Cross and destined to be caught in a no man's land where memory, history, and myth collide. As Ramsay tells his story, it begins to seem that from boyhood, he has exerted a perhaps mystical, perhaps pernicious, influence on those around him. His apparently innocent involvement in such innocuous events as the throwing of a snowball or the teaching of card tricks to a small boy in the end prove neither innocent nor innocuous. "Fifth Business" stands alone as a remarkable story told by a rational man who discovers that the marvelous is only another aspect of the real. Bookseller Inventory # APG9780143051381
