04.15: Rachel Kushner
2013-03-15 00:36:44| Powells Books Events Calendar
Rachel Kushner's first novel, Telex from Cuba, was nominated for a National Book Award and reviewed on the cover of the New York Times Book Review. Her second novel, even more ambitious and brilliant, is the riveting story of a young artist and the worlds she encounters in New York and Rome in the mid-1970s — by turns underground, elite, and dangerous. The Flamethrowers (Scribner) is an intensely engaging exploration of the mystique of the feminine, the fake, the terrorist. At its center is Kushner's brilliantly realized protagonist, a young woman on the verge. Thrilling and fearless, this is a major American novel from a writer of spectacular talent and imagination.
