The Shoplifter Sal Godoij

The Shoplifter is a forceful drama that grippingly blends the rational with the absurd and dreams with stark reality. The story unfolds in a hallucinatory triangle of wild passion, adultery, and crime. In this uniquely so human tragedy, the author explores the layers of despair a man falls through when life corners him. Maximilian Tal is a wounded man who struggles to escape from the imposed status quo embodied by his wife, Charlotte Destaigne. On his quest for happiness, Max meets Bella Tsê, a beautiful woman of untrustworthy morals. Turning over page after page, the reader will follow Max, Charlotte, and Bella in their struggle to escape from the spiderweb destiny has knit about their lives.
