The Darling (ISBN: 0060957352 / 0-06-095735-2) Banks, Russell Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Perennial, 2005. Softcover. Book Condition: Brand New. Reprint Edition. 8vo - over 7.75" - 9.75" tall. Brand new. Never read or owned. May have a remainder mark. 391 pages. 8.00 x 5.30 x 1.20 in. 10.6 oz. Having fled to West Africa in the late 1970s for her work as a political radical and member of the Weather Underground, Hannah Musgrave befriends notorious former Liberian president Charles Taylor, whom she helps to escape from prison and who years later leads a rebellion that threatens Hannah's family. Russell Banks's life of Hannah Musgrave, a fictional Weather Underground member takes her, ultimately, to Africa, where she marries a Liberian official, gives birth to three sons, and works with chimpanzees. After a series of tumultuous events in the wake of the unseating of the country's president, Hannah finds herself again in America--the country she once plotted to overthrow. As in CLOUDSPLITTER, his novel about the revolutionary John Brown, Banks delves into American history to bring his protagonist, and an entire era, to life. A New York Times Notable Book for 2004. [Hannah] emerges as a fascinating figure, striking universal chords in her search for identity and home.A rich and complex look at the searing connections between the personal and the political, this is one of Banks's most powerful novels yet. -- Publishers Weekly  (08/02/2004) -- THE DARLING is not a perfect book--its very expansiveness of vision and range make that almost impossible--but it is admirable, compelling, always surprising and never clichà d.[A] symphony of history, politics and impossible, failed dreams. -- New York Times Book Review - Mary Gordon (10/24/2004) -- This.is yet another dark fable of American pseudo-innocence lost, and Banks is such a master storyteller, and has thought so deeply about the issues of race and power at hand, that there is much to savor here. As always, his portraits of rural and working-class New England life are unsurpassed, as are his depictions of the way the personal and political push and pull against each other to shape human character. -- Nation - Deborah Scroggins (12/13/2004).
