With Death Itself Upon You is a Kafkaesque novella of despair, hopelessness, and finally, redemption. Here author Alex Baylor weaves a dystopian-like nightmare reminding one of the dark stories of Camus, Sartre, and his own countryman Dostoevsky. Dreams and frightening visions blend and then separate only to blend again, forming a riveting tapestry which describes the life and desires of the forlorn yet memorable protagonist Maxim Vladimirovich. Lovers of the aforementioned writers as well as dystopian literature aficionados will want to place this book on their shelves next to The Stranger, Anthem, and The Wall.
