"Alone in his apartment, standing naked before a full-length mirror, Fred Wagner observes that he is simultaneously losing weight and developing a paunch, and he just wishes ... And as he wishes, starting with his feet and gradually working upwards, Fred becomes invisible." An excerpt from this book which is a blending of Thomas Berger's psychological insights and a mastery of the English language. A witty and elegant novel.
