Publisher Description
Rogue Male is one of the classic thrillers of the 20th century. It's a gripping adventure on the themes of liberty, tyranny, and the ethics of political violence.
An Englishman plans to assassinate the dictator of a European country. But he is foiled at the last moment and falls into the hands of ruthless and inventive torturers. They devise for him an ingenious and diplomatic death but, for once, they bungle the job and he escapes. But England provides no safety from his pursuers - and the Rogue Male must strip away all the trappings of status and civilization as the hunter becomes a hunted animal.

Customer Reviews
A Great Reading of a Great Book
A great Boys Own thriller and alongside the 39 Steps one of the best stories in the genre. Excellent story, well read audio ( if you can't get the Michael Jayston version then this is the next best thing). Fully deserves the high rating here. Enjoy!
fantastic reading of wonderful book
I so love this audio book and listen to it every year or so. The reader is wonderful - lovely elegiac, calm, soft tone - perfectly matching the tenor of the book. The best audiobook I have ever listened to. Highly recommended.
Outstanding Novel
This book/audiobook is one of the greatest works of the 20th century. Geoffrey Household takes you on a journey which, the more one reads or listens, allows you to become intertwined with the difficulties our 'Rogue Male' faces physically and mentally. My grandmother purchased me this book, in hardback, over ten years ago. I listen to this audiobook time and time again, and I'm still blown away by this genuine work of art.
Please buy it. It'll be one of the best reads/listens you'll ever come across.
