From inside flap:

By the time Rick Hamilton's chair hit the floor, he had already seen the horror about to visit his wife Anne. He rushed out of the most important meeting of his life and, arriving on the expressway, the scene was exactly as he had just witnessed it, only minutes before, in his mind's eye. There was Anne lying in the road pinned underneath her car, fighting for her life. Rick was helpless, but at the darkest moment of his grief, something even more catastrophic happened. At a stroke, his life was literally turned in on itself....

In this gripping psychodrama by an award-winning screenwriter, a man is propelled by the weight of tragedy from his own world into a parallel universe beyond his own existence. Rick Hamilton, a Connecticut magazine publisher, suddenly finds himself imprisoned inside his alter ego. Here the struggle against his own self begins as he tries desperately to return home. Rick not only grapples with his own identity, but is soon pitted against the people from his previous life, including Anne, who appear before him in strange and sometimes painful guises.

THE MAN WHO TURNED INTO HIMSELF is a highly mesmerizing, daring, and seductive novel; a cosmic ride through parallel worlds beyond our own comprehension. At its heart is a psychological and philosophical conundrum that probes the very meaning of the word "I," to an extent verging on the disintegration of what we know to be the human personality.
