Payback : debt as metaphor and the shadow side of wealth
Atwood, Margaret, 1939-2009

This is not a book about debt management or high finance, but about debt as a very old, central motif in religion and literature and also in the structuring of human societies. It looks at the language of debt in the Old Testament - what was 'owed' to God, and why.
