A portrait of two men and the powerful, unforgettable woman they both love - and for whom they are both ready, in their very different ways, to stake everything.
About the Author
ROBERT STONE was the author of seven novels:A Hall of Mirrors,Dog Soldiers(winner of the National Book Award),A Flag for Sunrise,Children of Light,Outerbridge Reach,Damascus Gate, andBay of Souls. His story collection,Bear and His Daughter, was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, and his memoir,Prime Green, was published in 2006.His work was typically characterized by psychological complexity, political concerns, and dark humor.A lifelong adventurer who in his 20s befriended Ken Kesey, Neal Cassady, and what he called ‘‘all those crazies’’ of the counterculture, Mr. Stone had a fateful affinity for outsiders, especially those who brought hard times on themselves. Starting with the 1966 novel ‘‘A Hall of Mirrors,’’ Mr. Stone set his stories everywhere from the American South to the Far East. He was a master of making art out of his character’s follies, whether the adulterous teacher in ‘‘Death of the Black-Haired Girl,’’ the fraudulent seafarer in ‘‘Outerbridge Reach,’’ or the besieged journalist in ‘‘Dog Soldiers,’’ winner of the National Book Award in 1975.
