The Devil Tree
by Jerzy Kosinski
Bantam, 1976 Printing
Jonathan James Whalen. Sole heir to one of today's largest American steel fortunes. Young. Handsome, Super athlete. Super sexed. Super moneyed. But the golden boy of the American dream is not only coming of age. He is also coming apart. A Yale dropout. Hooked on opium. Tripped out. Coolly watched by Karen, his standby sweetheart he is searching for roots that sink deep into a private hell. Like the devil tree that he is so fond of, Whalen is living his life upside down.
