The rules are simple: each player will perform an act: each of the others must duplicate it, or be eliminated. All that the players have in common is their desperation. One is a mercenary soldier with a taste for proving his manhood through self-torture. Another is a porno-starlet. A third is a perfectly ordinary mother whose seven-year-old's life depends on a million-dollar medical treatment. Each of the seven thinks he or she will do anything; all but one of them are wrong. 650 0 $a Islands $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Social isolation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Imitation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Risk-taking (Psychology) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a American fiction $y 20th century. 650 6 $a IÌles $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Isolement social $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Imitation (Psychologie) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Prise de risque $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Roman ameÌricain $y 20e sieÌcle. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0076014 650 7 $a American fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807048 650 7 $a Imitation $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00967684 650 7 $a Islands $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00980104 650 7 $a Risk-taking (Psychology) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01098195 650 7 $a Social isolation $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122596 650 7 $a Islands $v Fiction $2 nli 650 7 $a Social isolation $v Fiction $2 nli 650 7 $a Imitation $v Fiction $2 nli 650 7 $a Risk-taking (Psychology) $v Fiction $2 nli 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 0 $a Fantasy fiction. 655 7 $a Fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 gsafd 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240717024924.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EA28C574084B11EFBCAD05DA2DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
