Jacket design: Jon Lopez. keywords: Literature America . FROM THE PUBLISHER - The Toll is set in Morocco, a country of spectacular physical beauty and frequently ugly and brutal living conditions. In an atmosphere of uneasiness after an attempted coup, Ted Kuyler, an ex-Marine and veteran of several ambiguous wars, is hired by a group of young Americans who need help. A friend has just gotten a long jail sentence for possession of an illegal weapon, and they want him freed. Because Ted is lonely, financially desperate, and prematurely apprehensive about his age, he accepts the job and one girl's offer of love. But soon the group are as much in conflict with one another as with the Moroccan authorities, and they become involved in bribery, deceit, betrayal, and murder, with each step taking them farther along a narrow path from which there is no turning back. As the book carries the reader, as well as the characters, toward its climax, they experience together a shattering insight into the self-delusion and disaster that often undermine any attempt to impose individual concepts of justice and freedom upon others. With his third novel in four years, Michael Mewshaw stakes his claim as one of the country's most energetic and resourceful young writers. The Toll, like his previous work, challenges facile current assumptions, this time by pushing out dramatically from personal, introspective questions to an examination of the consequences of political intervention and violence. Seldom since Hemingway has an American author described physical action, exhaustion, and fear so vividly. But what makes The Toll truly distinctive is the much different and thought- provoking perspective which Mr. Mewshaw brings to the familiar themes of military expertise, masculine initiation, and courage under fire, and his insistence on exploring the outermost darkness of the shadows cast by every act. inventory #5621.
