The Ten-Foot Chain

"The Ten-Foot Chain" is a novel by the American author Frederick Schiller Faust. He worked under numerous pseudonyms, and this work was created under the pen name Max Brandt. The novel's main idea can be expressed in the question, "What mental and emotional reaction would a man and a woman undergo, linked together by a ten-foot chain, for three days and nights?" The question was asked during a talk between several learned men, each of whom had his version of the answer.
