Caracteristici
Written closely and with the full support of Diane Foley, this book tells the story of Jim Foley as intimately as possible while also depicting a wider narrative about the nature of truth, forgiveness and strength in the face of unimaginable pain in the vein of literary nonfiction like In Cold Blood by Truman Capote and Free by Lea Ypi
Notă biografică
Colum McCann's seven novels and three collections of short stories have been published in over forty languages and received some of the world's most prestigious literary awards and honours, including the National Book Award for his novel Let the Great World Spin in 2009. His novel TransAtlantic was longlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2013, and his most recent novel, Apeirogon, also longlisted for the Man Booker Prize, is an international bestseller on four continents.Diane Foley co-founded the James W. Foley Legacy Foundation in the weeks after her son, a journalist, was beheaded by members of ISIS in the Syrian Desert in 2014. Inspired by the life, work, and moral courage of her son, Diane has worked with Congress and every presidential administration since, catalyzing action, research, and policy to win freedom for all US Nationals wrongfully detained or held hostage abroad.
Recenzii
This is an extraordinary story of grace, forgiveness and moral courage. Bookended by Diane Foley's meetings with her son's killer, American Mother plunges us into the heart of darkness and then, somehow, on the far end, discovers unexpected light and hope. Diane Foley's voice, as captured by Colum McCann, is one of the most compelling in recent literary memory. An honest, searing, heartbreaking book
One of the most extraordinary stories that I have read in years
Having lived through every mother's worst nightmare and somehow survived, Diane Foley leads with her heart in her fierce advocacy for Americans captured abroad. Now, in this book, she helps us understand how that is possible by inviting us to walk with her through some of the hardest moments of her life, courageously facing the unthinkable, sharing a candour that takes your breath away, and a deep hope that generations to come will never have to face what she did
