- Synopsis
- Chance is a man without a past. Raised in the home of a wealthy old man, isolated from the world, he experiences only what he sees on television and his only other activity is daily work in the garden. When the old man dies and Chance is evicted, he steps into the path of a car. From then on, he begins a series of adventures that lead him into a world of wealth, politics, and celebrity. In this cuttingly funny novel, Kosinski shows how a man with practically no resources whatever can become a symbol of power, intellect, and sex appeal, merely by "being there."
