The Double Life of Alfred Buber

A splendid original tale, Alfred Buber is warm, smart, romantic, but his life is as barren as an ice floe, an embarrassing collage of successes and humiliations that add up to... nothing. He lives as if he has landed in a strange country, nowhere he recognizes.

Can an-oh-so respectable Boston lawyer, out of options, out of hope, lonely beyond measure, stray way outside the lines and find love?

Can he step into the tawdry dark, and back into the wholesome light, and not be affected?

Alfred Buber thinks he can. But the line between his two lives is a thin one.
