Wise Men summary ´ 108 Hur Wise è stanco e malato e tutti i personaggi stanno ancora cercando di farsi una ragione di uello che era accaduto nello stesso posto tanti anni prima Il finale assolutamente a sorpresa riallaccia i nodi di vicende fino a uel momento misteriose svelando segreti a lungo conservati Ambizioso e dotato di grande talento Nadler coinvolge il lettore in una storia americana che riprende la grande narrativa dei secoli passati i suoi temi i suoi personaggi emblematici le sue persistenti contraddizioni raccontando però con tutta la freschezza e l’entusiasmo di chi uella storia uei temi li ha rielaborati alla luce della contemporaneit?. The book jacket screams reminiscent of Harper Lee winsome and compelling narrator brilliantly plotted and carefully observed I d have to agree If you lived in an alternate universe that is where any kind of falderal and gibberish passes for literature This book has as much in common with Harper Lee as Homer the author of The Iliad and The Odyssey has in common with Homer Jay Simpson erstwhile Safety Inspector at the Springfield Nuclear Plant Harper Lee lived and understood To Kill a Mockingbird Nadler watched the made for tv movie took notes and rendered a feeble facsimile of inter racial tensions and complexities At the very best this book is an annoyance At its worst it is a violation against the civil rights movement and the intricacies of human interaction in that very difficult post war period in AmericaI am offended by the simple minded narrative and dialogue that reads like a pre pubescent teen s novel of sexual discovery than it does of any complicated social and racial issues It s as if the author felt that if he threw in a Jew a Black Man and a couple of homosexuals into the mix stirred it up and threw some period specific lingo he d have the perfect recipe for exploring the emotional ferment of that period from the 1950s to 1970sBetter to have titled the novel Idiot in America for the punning of the Wise family moniker with the wise men really grates like nails on chalkboard
