ОглавлениеADVANCE PRAISE FOR FLASH A NOVEL
BY JIM MILLER
“This remarkable novel is nothing less than a secret history of California—a radical past that might yet redeem our future.”
—Mike Davis, author of City of Quartz
“Flash is about the search for a usable past in a time and place where, as in Orson Welles’s Touch of Evil, the future has been all used up—or gentrified. Miller’s historical sense is rich and particular, showing a Pynchonesque flair for secret history, and a comparable tenderness for the lost lineages and resilient utopianism of the permanent left.”
—David Reid, editor of Sex, Death, and God in LA
“If Howard Zinn had written a novel about the I.W.W. in
border country during the Mexican revolution, one that was
also a family saga and a mystery revealing the secret history of
the twentieth century, it would read like Flash, which deals in the rarest of commodities: hope for our future.”
—Forrest Hylton, author of Evil Hour in Colombia
