Présentation de l'éditeur :
La giovane Purity Tyler, detta Pip, non conosce la sua vera identità. Sua madre, per un motivo misterioso, non vuole rivelarle chi è suo padre, l'uomo dal quale è fuggita prima che Pip nascesse, cambiando nome e ritirandosi a vivere nell'anonimato tra i boschi della California settentrionale. Pip è povera: ha un pesante debito studentesco da ripagare e vive in una casa occupata a Oakland, frequentata da un gruppo di anarchici. Ed è proprio lì che incontra Annagret, un'attivista tedesca che le apre le porte di uno stage con il Sunlight Project, l'organizzazione fondata dal famoso e carismatico Andreas Wolf, un leaker rivale di Julian Assange, allo scopo di rivelare i segreti dei potenti. Pip parte per la Bolivia, dove ha sede il Sunlight Project, con la speranza di poter usare la tecnologia degli hacker per svelare il segreto dell'identità di suo padre. Ma l'incontro con Andreas Wolf si rivela sconvolgente per molti motivi. Anche Andreas ha un terribile segreto nascosto nel suo passato, negli anni in cui viveva a Berlino Est come figlio ribelle di una madre squilibrata e di un padre pezzo grosso del Partito Comunista. Lo rivela proprio a Pip, con la quale instaura una relazione intensa e morbosa. Forse i suoi moventi segreti sono legati a Tom Aberant, il giornalista di Denver per il quale Pip andrà a lavorare dopo lo stage con il Sunlight Project, destabilizzando la relazione di Tom con la sua compagna Leila e portando un grande sconvolgimento anche nelle loro vite...

Description du livre Paperback. Etat : Very Good. A magnum opus for our morally complex times from the author of FREEDOM and THE CORRECTIONS Young Pip Tyler doesnt know who she is. She knows that her real name is Purity, that shes saddled with $130,000 in student debt, that shes squatting with anarchists in Oakland, and that her relationship with her mother her only family is hazardous. But she doesnt have a clue who her father is, why her mother chose to live as a recluse with an invented name, or how shell ever have a normal life. Enter the Germans. A glancing encounter with a German peace activist leads Pip to an internship in South America with the Sunlight Project, an organization that traffics in all the secrets of the world including, Pip hopes, the secret of her origins. TSP is the brainchild of Andreas Wolf, a charismatic provocateur who rose to fame in the chaos following the fall of the Berlin Wall. Now on the lam in Bolivia, Andreas is drawn to Pip for reasons she doesnt understand, and the intensity of her response to him upends her conventional ideas of right and wrong. Jonathan Franzens Purity is a grand story of youthful idealism, extreme fidelity, and murder. The author of The Corrections and Freedom has imagined a world of vividly original characters Californians and East Germans, good parents and bad parents, journalists and leakers and he follows their intertwining paths through landscapes as contemporary as the omnipresent Internet and as ancient as the war between the sexes. Purity is the most daring and penetrating book yet by one of the major writers of our time. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. N° de réf. du vendeur GOR007291710
