Pinocchio's Nose
A fortyish disaffected Bronx intellectual who grew up in a world of subterfuge and violence identifies with Carlo Collodi's book Pinocchio, creating a fantasy life that helps him cope with the unpleasant confusion of reality. As he grows older, his obsession becomes so complete that for long stretches of the novel, real world existence is but a shadow of his puppet incarnation.
