General Note
Translation of La cage de verre.
Description
Emile literally lives in a glass cage where he works as a printer's proofreader. Little by little it is shown that Emile's passivity masks a subcutaneous rage that has built up since childhood. This study of a psychopath is one of Simenon's most chilling and compelling works.
