The sacrificial circumcision of the Bronx
Arthur Nersesian · 2008
על הספר
The highly anticipated follow-up to The Swing Voter of Staten Island—the first installment in Nersesian's series of novels offering an alternate history of New York: The Five Books of Moses.Robert Moses was responsible for creating contemporary New York's infrastructure, but he did so at the cost of destroying neighborhoods. In this novel, Robert has looted his brother Paul's share of the Moses family fortune, repeatedly blocked his attempts at gaining public office, thwarted his career in the private sector, and set in motion events that will decimate Paul's home life. Paul Moses's deep-seated rage metamorphoses into an act of terrorism committed against his brother and against a city that he once cherished.Although it can be read as a stand-alone novel about Robert and Paul Moses, the novel is also a memory play that follows the hero of The Swing Voter of Staten Island en route to solving a massive historical crime.
