5.0 out of 5 stars
A Novel Based on the Lindbergh Kidnapping,
This review is from: Correction of Drift: A Novel in Stories (Paperback)
This is a great book for people who are interested (and some are obsessed) with the Lindbergh story. The question always remains: what was the truth, what did happen and this book sets out "on foot" to find the answers in a way only fiction can.
This is experimental fiction, a must read for those who are interested in what writing can be, a must read for students of fiction who want inspiration and encouragement for thier own experimentations: to believe that writing can be not the same-old, same-old, can be more courageous, can be something new in the very form of writing. The first sentence begins "They lit out on foot, in wing tips, in oxfords--black & white, and oxblood brown--and sharp-toed boots of yellow buck with high tips and a fancy stitch--hurrying along the moon-bright road......" and follows our kidnappers as they set out to do the dirty deed. The references to news clippings made me want to find out more of the story. Buy this book. Keep it forever. And go back to it again and again. |
