À propos de cet e-book
‘Two Days' Solitary Imprisonment’ (1898) is a classic short story by the American author, Edward Bellamy, most famous for his socialist and utopian novel ‘Looking Backward: 2000-1887’ (1888).
Wrongly accused of a crime he did not commit, a man is sent to solitary confinement but when confusion and incompetence convince his accusers of his guilt, will he be able to prove his innocence?
This Kafkaesque tale about a man whose recurring dreams of unjust persecution come to pass is a gripping read and will captivate fans of Franz Kafka and Albert Camus.
