Ageless. Sexless. Deathless. Timeless. Pilgrim is a man who cannot die, an astounding character in a novel of the cataclysmic contest between creation and destruction. Pilgrim is Timothy Findley's masterwork, a finalist for the Giller Prize, and a national bestseller that has smashed the author's own impressive sales records. It is 1912 and Pilgrim has been admitted to the BurghIlzli Psychiatric Clinic in ZIrich, Switzerland, having failed'once again'to commit suicide. Over the next two years, it is up to Carl Jung, self-professed mystical scientist of the mind, to help Pilgrim unlock his unconsciousness, etched as it is with myriad sufferings and hopes of history. Is Pilgrim mad, or is he condemned to live forever, witness to the terrible tragedy and beauty of the human condition' Both intimate and expansive in its scope, with an absorbing parade of characters'mythic, fictional and historical'Pilgrim is a fiercely original and powerful story from one of our most distinguished artists.
