The Descent shows how catastrophes are a fact of life - and that life is given to us on a silver platter, but it is up to us what we do with it. In his most accessible novel, Fritz Peters turns his observational prowess to the most unassuming of characters. Their dead ends and diversions are the repercussions of haphazard decisions made by their unexamined selves. Peters captures the motivations of both male and female characters, how they struggle to understand each other and coexist, and what territory can only be ceded in the gaps of understanding they encounter. Peters' insights in this novel are timeless.
