The Hair Of Harold Roux
by Williams, Thomas
Thomas Williams was an American writer. He worked as a writer and teacher at the University of New Hampshire, and is the author of seven novels. The winner of the National Book Awards in 1975, The Hair Of Harold Roux, is written as a novel-within-a-novel. The novel’s novelist is Aaron Benham, a professor who is also a family man and an idealist, who is supposed to be working on his novel, but finds himself doing everything but working on it. His life has reached the point where he is sick of the world, of explaining things to people, to students; and as he feels unable to help those around him, he retreats into his alter-ego and becomes caught up in seduction, madness and murder. Williams writes an engrossing story, drawing the reader into the superbly classic meditation on the value and place of fiction in the human experience.
