With the pace and suspense of a thriller and prose that has been compared to Graham Greene and Saul Bellow\, The Sympathizer is a sweeping epic of love and betrayal. The narrator\, a communist double agent\, is a “man of two minds\,” a half-French\, half-Vietnamese army captain who arranges to come to America after the Fall of Saigon\, and while building a new life with other Vietnamese refugees in Los Angeles is secretly reporting back to his communist superiors in Vietnam. The Sympathizer is a blistering exploration of identity and America\, a gripping espionage novel\, and a powerful story of love and friendship.” -Amazon editor \n[Photo by: UCI School of Humanities] URL:https://alumni.virginia.edu/dchoos/event/october-book-club-the-sympathizer-a-novel/ LOCATION:Silver Diner\, 3200 Wilson Boulevard\, Arlington\, VA\, 22201\, United States CATEGORIES:Book Club END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
