The Darling - Russell Banks

Descriere The Darling - Russell Banks

Set in Liberia and the United States from 1975 through 1991, The Darling tells the story of Hannah Musgrave, a radical member of the Weather Underground--a descendant of Joan Didion's alienated, terminally detached woman . . . [and] of Graham Greene's quiet but not so innocent [American] (The New York Times). \n \nA New York Times Notable Book - National Bestseller\n \nRussell Banks's work presents without falsehood and with tough affection the uncompromising moral voice of our time. You find the craziness of false dreams, the political inequalities, and somehow the sliver of redemption.--Michael Ondaatje\n \nSet in Liberia and the United States from 1975 through 1991, The Darling, from acclaimed author Russell Banks, is the story of Hannah Musgrave, a political radical and member of the Weather Underground.\n \nHannah flees America for West Africa, where she and her Liberian husband become friends of the notorious warlord and ex-president, Charles Taylor. Hannah's encounter with Taylor ultimately triggers a series of events whose momentum catches Hannah's family in its grip and forces her to make a heartrending choice.\n
