Summary:
"Stark, brooding, and enormously controversial when first published in 1905, this astonishing novel juxtaposes impressions of fin-de-siècle Stockholm against the psychological landscape of a man besieged by obsession. Lonely and introspective, Doctor
Glas
has long felt an instinctive hostility toward the odious local minister. So when the minister’s beautiful wife complains of her husband’s oppressive sexual attentions, Doctor
Glas
finds himself contemplating murder. A masterpiece of enduring power, Doctor
Glas
confronts a chilling moral quandary with gripping intensity."--Publisher.
