by Bruce Olds
Product Group: Book
ISBN: 0312420935
Binding/Media: Paperback - 352 pages
Condition: Good
Comments: 1995 edition. Trade paperback from Penguin (1995), this is Raising Holy Hell: A Novel by Bruce Olds. This copy has some edge wear, with moderate amount of underlines and margin notes throughout. Owner's name on inside cover. A unique novel about John Brown. One amazon reviewer writes, "The style of the book is remarkable. Olds writes in short bursts of prose, not more than three or four pages at a time, and from different perspectives: first person, third person, quotes from actual historical documents, and what appears to be an interview with Brown from beyond the grave. The effect is like channel-surfing on cable TV. And it works beautifully--it's an exciting way to write about history for the '90's reader... This book has great resonance. This is a time of intense, moralistic political warfare and this depiction of intense pre-Civil War passions should be disturbingly familiar. Bruce Olds makes us recognize and respect complexity. His final take on John Brown seems to be that he was an unpleasant, possibly insane man who nevertheless knew what the most important moral issue of his time was." « if ( document.getElementById ) { document.writeln('Show less'); }
