A Spy in Canaan, by David Park: a restless American. The hero of this tormented novel remembers the months he spent in Saigon at the end of the Vietnam War.
At the twilight of his life, a man looks back to his past and asks himself: did I do the right thing? Michael is American, of Northern Irish origin, son of a modest family, devout Presbyterian parents. He distanced himself from his education very early on, but it left a lasting mark on him: the texts of the Bible haunted him.
