圖書名稱:The Power

That breathing behind you is Edwin.
Of all men, why would the boy Pharaoh Tutankhamen reach
through the ages to give Edwin–an inconsequential insurance
actuarial–the power to be invisible? Edwin gets his reality-altering
ability at a museum exhibit when his existential dive and
transformations begin.
Routinely ignored by women, Edwin first uses his power as
a voyeur. Later, when his nemesis Imelda fires him, financial
necessity drives a jobless Edwin to use invisibility to game the
stock market and get very rich.
On an unseen visit to the FDA to gather insider information,
Edwin overhears executives plan to squash an important drug
breakthrough. Their politically driven cynicism enrages Edwin
and what follows is a press conference at the White House unlike
any ever held.
Edwin uses his power to become invisible to avert a dangerous
military confrontation, and later, on a visit to a biotech firm,
Edwin realizes that he alone must prevent a global food crisis.
Each adventure gives him insight into what personal power is
until Edwin finally gets why the Pharaoh chose him.
The Power is driven by our archetypal curiosity about invisibility–
our fly-on-the-wall fascination with it in the tradition of
Wells’ classic The Invisible Man or seen currently in our wonderment
at Harry Potter’s magic cloak. In The Power, magic
becomes a metaphor that asks the questions: when does power
destroy us and when does it fulfill? How does Edwin and how
do you the reader define your power? The Power is a vicarious
ride that leaves you feeling ever more empowered.
