Purity/Jonathan Franzen

Momentan nu sunt oferte disponibile.

A magnum opus for our morally complex times, from The New York Times Bestselling author of FreedomYoung Pip Tyler doesn t know who she is. She knows that her real name is Purity, that she s saddled with $130,000 in student debt, that she's squatting with anarchists in Oakland, and that her relationship with her mother―her only family―is hazardous. But she doesn't have a clue who her father is, why her mother chose to live as a recluse with an invented name, or how she ll ever have a normal life. It takes a seemingly chance encounter with two visitors from Germany to send Pip―and the reader―on a journey of discovery that ranges from Stasi-era East Berlin to a rainforest in Bolivia; and from the ancient war between the sexes to the present-day bewilderments of the Internet. Purity is a grand story of youthful idealism, extreme fidelity, and murder―the most daring and penetrating book yet by one of the major writers of our time.
