The Un-Americans

A stunning exploration of characters shaped by the forces of history, the debut work of fiction by a National Book Foundation "5 Under 35" Honoree. Moving from modern-day Jerusalem to McCarthy-era Los Angeles to communist Prague and back again, The UnAmericans is a stunning exploration of characters shaped by the forces of history. Molly Antopol's critically acclaimed debut will long be remembered for its "poise and gravity" ( New York Times), each story "so full of heartache and humor, love and life…[it's] as though we're absorbing a novel's worth of insight" (Jesmyn Ward, Salon).
