His students,  however, are devoted to him. His teaching of Camus, Faulkner, Sartre,  Keats and  other kindred souls breathe life into their sense of social justice and  their  capacities for philosophical and ethical thought. But unbeknownst to his  adoring  pupils, Silver proves incapable of living up to the ideals he encourages  in  others. Emotionally scarred by failures in his personal life and driven  to  distraction by the City of Light's overpowering carnality and beauty,  Silver  succumbs to a temptation that will change the course of his life. His  fall will  render him a criminal in the eyes of some, and all too human in the eyes  of  others. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Maksik's stylish prose, Paris is sensual, dazzling and dangerously  seductive.  It serves as a fitting backdrop for a dramatic tale about the tension  between  desire and action, and about the complex relationship that exists between  our  public and private selves.","brand":"Alexander Maksik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48170145644795,"sku":"9781609450489","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_642500bc-8c14-478e-baad-e6849a4a3b38.jpg?v=1770635778","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/you-deserve-nothing-9781609450489","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
