But as his obsession with maintaining this identity becomes all-consuming, he risks blindinghimself to the twin dangers of the threat itself andperhaps worsehis own deranged mind.At once absurdist, moving, and savagely funny,The Threatis a timeless parable of the comic lengths to whichpeople go to protect the delusions that validate them.
