DJ flawless; price unclipped. Virtually As New. Not a Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. 212pp. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated, but the copyright date is 1960. Hardback with DJ. This well crafted novel contains a number of fully fleshed out characters, all of whom are quite believable. It would be wrong to classify Slam the Big Door as a mystery; all the important events that go to make up the plot take place right out in the open, in full view of the reader. Nor is it a crime story; DUI is just about the most serious violation of the legal system described in its pages. This is a book about relationships, complex human relationships that bind the characters together and, at times, wrench them apart. Mike Rodenska having recently lost his beloved wife, travels to Florida's gulfcoast ostensibly for a relaxing visit with his friend Troy Jamison and Troy's wife Mary. Once there, it becomes abundantly apparent that Troy needs Mike's help a lot more than Mike needs Troy's hospitality. The Jamisons' marriage is very much on the rocks and Troy's latest business venture is about to go belly up. With the use of very detailed and evocative descriptions, MacDonald succeeds in bringing to life the characters who together compose the circle of family, friends and acquaintances inhabiting the Jamisons' not so idyllic world. This is a thoughtfully written novel about friendship, love, self loathing, human fraility and the emptiness of affluence too easily obtained. Recommended to readers interested in exploring the psychological underpinnings of human behavior. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. …
