In his extraordinary and highly charged new novel, John Updike
tackles one of America's most burning issues - the threat of
Islamist terror from within. Set in contemporary New Jersey,
Terrorist traces the journey of one young man, from radicalism to
fundamentalism to terrorism, against the backdrop of a fraying
urban landscape and an increasingly fragmented community. In
beautiful prose, Updike dramatizes the logic of the fundamentalist
terrorist - but also suggests ways in which we can counter it, in
our words and our actions . . .
