FROM THE BOOK:
'I am damned,' thinks Bunny Munro in a sudden moment of self-awareness reserved for those who are soon to die. He feels that somewhere down the line he has made a grave mistake, but this realisation passes in a dreadful heartbeat, and is gone—leaving him in a room at the Grenville Hotel, in his underwear, with nothing but himself and his appetites . . .'
