Krátky popis
'The best new writer of fiction in America. The best.' - John
Irving Nathan Hill's brilliant debut takes the reader from the
rural Midwest of the 1960s, to New York City during Occupy Wall
Street, from Chicago in 1968, to wartime Norway: home of the
mysterious Nix. Meet Samuel: stalled writer, bored teacher at a
local college, obsessive player of online video games.He hasn't
seen his mother, Faye, in decades, not since she abandoned her
family when he was a boy. Now she has suddenly reappeared, having
committed an absurd politically motivated crime that electrifies
the nightly news, beguiles the Internet, and inflames a divided
America. The media paints Faye as a radical hippie with a sordid
past, but as far as Samuel knows, his mother was an ordinary girl
who married her high-school sweetheart.Which version of his mother
is true? Two facts are certain: she's facing some serious charges,
and she needs Samuel's help. As Samuel begins to excavate his
mother's, and his country's, history, he will unexpectedly find
that he has to rethink everything he ever knew about her - a woman
with an epic story of her own, a story she has kept hidden from the
world.
