Descrizione libro Soft cover. Condizione: New. Random House Trade Paperback Edition 2007, 1st printing. Introduction by Alan Cheuse. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in NEW condition of the Paris Review co-founder's debut novel. "It is the late 1940s and Paris is in turmoil. A man named Dujardin is sentenced to death for treason, sparking general strikes and threats of riots across the city. In the meantime, John Stone, a war-weary American and former secret agent, finds himself being investigated as a suspected Communist. What has brought these two men to their fates? H.L. Humes spins a thrilling account of the French underground during the last years of World War II, and the events that lead to the Dujardin affair. His many memorable characters include Adriane, loved by both Stone and Carnot, a fanatic Communist; Bruce Sheppard, the American ambassador to France, a statesman of vision and compassion; and Solange Recamier, the sophisticated young Parisian widow who finds meaning in trying to salvage Stone's broken life. THE UNDERGROUND CITY displays Humes's youthful literary skill and his striking capacity for fast-paced narrative. This is a brilliant tour de force."[]"Immensely intelligent and energetic, intensely dramatic and melodramatic, heroically overwritten yet sharp, insightful and precise, THE UNDERGROUND CITY is an astonishing book by a writer of abundant gifts whose resurrection is long overdue."---Peter Matthiessen. 755 pages; a pristine copy w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no age toning on pages.
