We first meet Larry Wright in 1960. He is thirteen and moving with
his family to Dallas, the essential city of the New World just
beginning to rise across the southern rim of the United States. As
we follow him through the next two decades--the civil rights
movement, the Vietnam War, the devastating assassinations of John
F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, and Martin Luther King, Jr., the sexual
revolution, the crisis of Watergate, and the emergence of Ronald
Reagan--we relive the pivotal and shocking events of those crowded
years.
Lawrence Wright has written the autobiography of a generation,
giving back to us with stunning force the feelings of those
turbulent times when the euphoria of Kennedy's America would come
to its shocking end. Filled with compassion and insight, "In the
New World" is both the intimate tale of one man's coming-of-age,
and a universal story of the American experience of two crucial
decades.
