Product Information
In Friedrich Dürrenmatt's experimental thriller The Assignment , the wife of a psychiatrist has been raped and killed near a desert ruin in North Africa. Her husband hires a woman named F. to reconstruct the unsolved crime in a documentary film. F. is soon unwittingly thrust into a paranoid world of international espionage where everyone is watched--including the watchers. After discovering a recent photograph of the supposed murder victim happily reunited with her husband, F. becomes trapped in an apocalyptic landscape riddled with political intrigue, crimes of mistaken identity, and terrorism. F.'s labyrinthine quest for the truth is Dürrenmatt's fictionalized warning against the dangers of a technologically advanced society that turns everyday life into one of constant scrutiny. Joel Agee's elegant translation will introduce a fresh generation of English-speaking readers to one of European literature's masters of language, suspense, and dystopia. "The narrative is accelerated from the start. . . . As the novella builds to its horripilating climax, we realize the extent to which all values have thereby been inverted. The Assignment is a parable of hell for an age consumed by images."-- New York Times Book Review "His most ambitious book . . . dark and devious . . . almost obsessively drawn to mankind's most fiendish crimes."-- Chicago Tribune "A tour-de-force . . . mesmerizing."-- Village Voice

The item was as pictured, came in super dusty but whatever. No telling how long it’s been sitting up so wasn’t that big of a deal to me. However, I did message the seller privately asking about shipping expectations as this was supposed to be a gift and the seller met me with rudeness/sarcasm. I understand that the postal service or vendor is in control once it leaves the seller’s premises, but my question about it’s arrival was more or less me not being familiar with time frames bc I don’t ship
