Like many of its kind the circumstances that underpin the story are a little outlandish, but more so than many others, iwas tols in a way that made it more than believable. It is no literary gem , but it does not need to be to make it a worthwhile read.
The book also alludes to an interesting question....how can one prove that you are you ? sounds like a silly question , but if those nearest and dearest to you are absent fo any reason and your records of your fingerprints accidently misplaced /substituted at a point in time, how do you indeed show that you are you and that "the man with my face " who is sitting at your work desk and proclaiming that he is you is not indeed you.
An intruiging read. Apparently made into a movie in the 1950s. The back cover blurb has a great line...the author is " the eighth child of the third wife of the six wives of the incomparable John W Taylor , one of the last of the Mormon pluralists". Now if you were looking for something outlandish about this book , it would be the back cover rather than that within which would win!
