"Gut-wrenching. . . . A majestic, fiery epic. The Given Dayis a huge, impassioned, intensively researched book that brings history alive."—New York Times
Now
available with a contemporary look, a beautifully written novel of American
history, set at the end of the Great War; an unflinching, utterly spectacular
family epic that captures the political unrest of a nation dangling between a
well-patterned past and an unpredictable future from acclaimed, New York
Times bestselling author Dennis Lehane
Dennis
Lehane’s beautifully written novel tells the story of two families—one black,
one white—swept up in a maelstrom of revolutionaries and anarchists, immigrants
and ward bosses, Brahmins and ordinary citizens, all engaged in a battle for
survival and power at the end of World War I. Coursing through the pivotal events of a turbulent epoch, it
explores the crippling violence and irrepressible exuberance of a country at
war with, and in the thrall of, itself.
