The Architect and the Emperor of Assyria

In The Architect and the Emperor of Assyria, a gentleman falls to earth from an airplane accident on an unknown island of which the sole inhabitant is a savage. In that isolation the barbarian learns speech and facts about the outside world. The instruction is a process of fun and games: games of justice, war, religion, love, marriage, and duty. Fueled by hunger and guilt, their confinement and love culminates in a surrealistic judge and jury episode in which only one man will survive.
