Requests:  0 Summary:  "When the aristocratic Golden family moves into a self contained pocket of New York City, a park in Greenwich Village called "The Gardens," their past is an absolute mystery. They seem to be hiding in plain sight: Nero Golden, the powerful but shady patriarch, and his sons Petya, a high functioning autistic and recluse; Apu, the successful artist who may or may not be profound; and D, the enchanting youngest son whose gender confusion mirrors the confusion - and possibilities - of the world around him. And finally there is Vasilisa, the Russian beauty who seduces the patriarch to shape their American stories. Our fearless narrator is an aspiring filmmaker who decides the Golden family will be his subject. He gains the trust of this strange family, even as their secrets gradually unfold - love affairs and betrayals, questions of belonging and identity, a murder, an apocalyptic terror attack, a magical, stolen baby, all set against a whirling background in which an insane Presidential Candidate known as only The Joker grows stronger and stronger, and America itself grows mad. And yet The Golden House is a hopeful story, even an inspiring one - a story about the hope that surrounds, and is made brighter by, even the darkest of situations. Overflowing with inventiveness, humor, and a touch of magic, this is a full-throated celebration of human nature, a great American novel, a tale of exile wrapped in a murder mystery, a meditation on the nature of good and evil, a thrilling page turner, and a coming of age story for the ages"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waialua Public Library Adult Fiction Rushdie Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
