Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Exchange of Souls
She 'told me that I had been talking to a great savant. No, he was not always so sweet-tempered as he appeared. For ex ample, he always swore at his manicurist; but then he sent her sweets from Rumpel mayer's to make up for it. If he interested me, would I not meet him at dinner there on the following Wednesday? It further appeared that somebody with a name like a tropical disease would be playing the 'cello.
I accepted, and in this way began an acquaintance which I wish that I had never made. I say that deliberately. I liked Myas. I hope that this story will show that when he became my friend I accepted the duties of friendship. But he led me into. A track where I was mazed and lost.
In the course of the next month I saw Myas frequently. He knew Paris well, and showed me much that I had not seen before. He was generally interesting, and sometimes astounding. One day he happened to speak.
