On the lam for an act of violence against the American government, 25-year-old Jenny Shimada agrees to care for three younger fugitives whom a shadowy figure from her former radical life has spirited out of California. One of them, the kidnapped granddaughter of a wealthy newspaper magnate in San Francisco, has become a national celebrity for embracing her captors' ideology and joining their revolutionary cell. A thought-provoking meditation on themes of race, identity, and class, American Woman explores the psychology of the young radicals, the intensity of their isolated existence, and the paranoia and fear that undermine their ideals.

是講暴力反對當下政權的激進左翼青年的故事,類似reluctant fundamentalist,但不是通過資本主義經濟架構來分析的。虛構作品試圖建構/解釋極端分子的邏輯,我雖然讀過一些這樣的作品,仍然覺得這個傾嚮有些可疑。本校曾有關於911文學的seminar在全國性的媒體上引起巨大爭議,就是“可疑”之處引起的。 151213補充:我覺得Pauline和Jenny的友情真的寫的很齣彩。最近總是控製不住地想。
