The Death of a Character
David Ohle
(Author)
Description
The end of the road for Moldenke?
The Death of a Character is cult author David Ohle's mordant meditation on the trials of the flesh, of bureaucracy, and tenderness. In the company of and old flame, and the neutrodynes Wheaton and Darleen, Moldenke retires to the marshlands, surrounded by snakes, haunted by a mysterious burial mound and harassed by a construction project that might destroy his home. Not only is Ohle's latest his most emotionally poignant, it is also a work of brilliant satire, threaded with bittersweet observations on mortality.
