Description
BY THE AUTHOR OF THE BOOKER PRIZE-SHORTLISTED BEWILDERMENT AND THE OVERSTORY_____________________Rosenthal Award from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and LettersSpecial Citation, PEN Hemingway Award_____________________In the spring of 1914, renowned German photographer August Sander takes a photograph of three young men on their way to a country dance.
This haunting image, capturing the last moments of innocence on the brink of World War I, provides the central focus of Richard Powers' brilliant and compelling first novel.
As the fate of the three farmers is chronicled, two contemporary stories unfold.
In one, a chance museum-goer becomes obsessed with the photo; and in the other, a young technical writer in Boston discovers he has a personal connection to it.
The three stories connect in an entirely surprising way, describing nothing less than the history of a century of brutality and progress. 'Nothing less than brilliant' John Updike
