Resumen:
A Changed Man. On an unseasonably warm spring afternoon, a young neo-Nazi named Vincent Nolan walks into the Manhattan office of World Brotherhood Watch, a human rights foundation headed by a charismatic Holocaust survivor, Meyer Maslow. Vincent announces that he wants to make a radical change in his life. But what is Maslow to make of this rough-looking stranger who claims to have read Maslow's books, who has Waffen-SS tattoos under his shirtsleeves, and who says that his mission is to save guys like him from becoming guys like him? Masterfully plotted, darkly comic, "A Changed Man" illuminates the everyday transactions in lives, exposing what remains invisible in plain sight in America's drug-addicted and media-driven culture. |

| Resumen: |
"Here is a novel that captures America at its most hilarious and dreadful. Here are characters as richly drawn as any in our fiction to date. And here is a work filled with such keen detail and emotiohal resonance that every page is a revelation. Come see why Francine Prose is one of a handful of truly indispensable American writers." - Gary Shtenyngart, author of The Russian Debutante's Handbook |
