About This Item
This is an account of Bill Sidney, from his school days to mid-life and his awkward relationships with women. The book alternates between a third-person segment that implies murderous intent and the main second-person narrative and jumps back and forth in time.
Synopsis
In 1929, Stout wrote his first published book How Like a God , an unusual psychological story told in the second person, in a man's mind as he walks up several flights of stairs.
