Vulf, Tomas (Wolfe, Thomas) Domoi Vozvrata Net: V Dvukh Tomakh
[ Domoi Vozvrata Net: V Dvukh Tomakh]
You can`t go home again
Moscow: TERRA, 1997 352+336 pp 2 v Hardcover. 13 x 21 cm ISBN: 5300015318 Language: RussianThe novel tells the story of George Webber, a beginning author, who writes a book that makes frequent references to his home town of Libya Hill. When the residents of Libya Hill read the book and see the "truths" Webber exposed, they begin sending Webber death threats and menacing letters expressing their discontent with the novel, even though it is held in high regard in the rest of the country. Wolfe, as in many of his other novels, explores the themes of a changing America, including the stock market crash and the illusion of prosperity, and the unfair passing of time, which inhibits George from ever being able to go "home again." The book is one of his more popular novels, along with Look Homeward Angel.
