Reseña del editor:

Nashe has decided to pursue a 'life of freedom'. He meets Pozzi, an itinerant gambler, and together they go in for an extraordinary game of poker with Flower and Stone, two eccentric reclusives living on a vast estate in Pennsylvania. It is a gamble that Nashe and Pozzi will regret for the rest of their lives.The Music of Chance is a strange, haunting parable by a writer of extraordinary imagination and power.
