Szpara's Docile is a science fiction parable about love and sex, wealth and debt, abuse and power, a challenging tour de force that at turns seduces and startles. There is no consent under capitalism. To be a Docile is to be kept, body and soul, for the uses of the owner of your contract. To be a Docile is to forget, to disappear, to hide inside your body from the horrors of your service. To be a Docile is to sell yourself to pay your parents' debts and buy your children's future. Content warning: Docile contains forthright depictions and discussions of rape and sexual abuse. Clean copy.

Hardcover. NY, Pocket Books, 1st, 1991, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. Nominated for the Edgar award, and basis of the Michael Douglas film. New York City psychiatrist Nathan Conrad possesses everything required for a good, normal life--a successful practice on Central Park West, an adoring wife and a lovely daughter. He also has a reputation for dealing with the hard cases that most of his uptown colleagues prefer to pass on: catatonics, schizophrenics, the criminally insane. In this taut, superbly plotted thriller, Klavan, an Edgar-winner also writing as Keith Peterson, interweaves Dr. Conrad's disparate worlds to riveting effect. Soon after he begins treating a young woman accused of a particularly brutal murder, Conrad receives a chilling phone call at home. Suddenly his safe private life becomes a nightmarish game board, with Sport and Maxwell, two vividly drawn psychopaths, key players in his terrifying ordeal. Maxwell smiles and hums when he hurts people; Sport finds this a handy behavior in an accomplice. And the reader, meanwhile, roots for Dr. Conrad all the way to this brisk novel's heart-stopping conclusion. SIGNED BY KLAVAN on the half-title page. Clean copy.

From the author's Introduction: "Once upon a time there was a group of towns in the North shire of Bennington County in the State of Vermont. these towns, not that many years ago, were peopled for the most part with hardy citizens who were steeped in the work ethic and spoke in the vernacular of men and women that did not mince words when expostulating their opinions, both philosophical and political. These are stories in their own language and graphic descriptions. No expletives have been deleted in the belief that any child that can read, and many that cannot have already heard them if indeed they are not allowed to use them in polite company".and, further on, "Most of the incidents recorded here occurred in the latter half of the 20th century. Many of the principals have gone to their reward, but they should be remembered as the philosophers and movers and shakers during their lives." Clean, bright copy.
