Longlisted for the 2015 IMPAC Dublin Literary Award
In 1955 Rose Zimmer got screwed. It wasn't the first time and it wasn't the last. In fact Rose - like all American Communists - got screwed by the entire twentieth century. She doesn't take it lying down. For over forty years she pounds the streets of Sunnyside Gardens Queens terrorising the neighbourhood and her family with the implacability of her beliefs the sheer force of her grudge.
And the generations that follow Rose will not easily escape her influence her ire her radicalism. Foremost among these is Miriam Rose's charismatic and passionate want-away hippie daughter who heads for the Greenwich Village of the Sixties; her black stepson Cicero an angry debunking machine; and her bewildered grandson Sergius who finds himself an orphan in the capitalist now.
A radical family epic and an alternative view of the American twentieth century Dissident Gardens is the story of a group of individuals who fought and lost but might one day win. It is a blast of pure style and literary dazzle from one of the great and most innovative writers of the age.
