He was then sentenced to execution and spent every day awaiting death--only to be released three months later under pressure from the British government. Out of this experience, Koestler wrote \u003ci\u003eDarkness at Noon\u003c\/i\u003e, his most acclaimed work in the United States, about a man arrested and executed in a Communist prison. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eDialogue with Death\u003c\/i\u003e is Koestler's riveting account of the fall of M laga to rebel forces, his surreal arrest, and his three months facing death from a prison cell. Despite the harrowing circumstances, Koestler manages to convey the stress of uncertainty, fear, and deprivation of human contact with the keen eye of a reporter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arthur Koestler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226449610\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226449616\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.47h x 5.65w x 0.62d","brand":"Arthur Koestler","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990112698623,"sku":"9780226449616","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1c5ced72-fa69-4f2f-b33c-4ecaa4343f82.jpg?v=1683303065","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dialogue-with-death-arthur-koestler-9780226449616","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
