Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. In its original, laminated, dust jacket, price clipped, gently bumped at edges. Brickner's second volume of autobiography begins 'In May 1953 I broke my neck in an automobile accident and lay for a while, precariously, on the furthest rim of existence'. And yet this is only in part about the aftermath of that accident, which first totally paralyzed Brickner. It also documents, which astonishing honesty, his struggle to become an independent and mature man.
