Product Information
"So rich and so evocative and so authentic." --Tom Brokaw, author of The Greatest Generation "John Crowley is a virtuoso of metaphor, a peerless recreator of living moments, of small daily sublimities." -- New York Times Book Review From the critically acclaimed author of Lord Byron's Novel and The Translator comes a novel set in World War II America that follows the stories of a group of aircraft factory workers--in particular, the enigmatic figure of draftsman Prosper Olander. Named one of the Best Books of 2009 by the Washington Post, Four Freedoms is a beautifully crafted story of liberation and redemption from an author who has been compared to Robertson Davies, Thomas Mann, and Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

Reviews
Four Freedoms.perfectly captures an era-WWII America-when the chosen are overseas and the left-behind are granted a rare moment of possibility. Crowley's extraordinary characters and the poignant, funny, disturbing ways they find to connect with one another make you wish this war would never end., “Ultimately, the significance of Four Freedoms lies in its thoroughness, the sheer specificity. . . . The result is an accessible, painstakingly crafted work that offers many pleasures and rewards. It could be the novel that finally brings Crowley the wide attention he has long deserved.�, In a tricky narrative that weaves in and out of the novel's present (19425) and lavishly detailed flashbacks to the characters' earlier lives, Crowley creates a fascinating microcosm....More rich, satisfying food for thought from one of America's most imaginative and accomplished novelists., John Crowley is a virtuoso of metaphor, a peerless recreator of living moments, of small daily sublimities. And his latest novel, Four Freedoms, is in many ways his most unguarded and imaginative work., “Although nominally about life at an American aircraft factory during World War II, Crowley’s complex and subtle novel is much grander. . . . Four Freedoms is also a triumph of both research and imagination. . . . A wonderful novel that readers won’t soon forget.�, Although nominally about life at an American aircraft factory during World War II, Crowley's complex and subtle novel is much grander. . . .

Item was new, as described. Seller was responsive when contacted about shipping delay.
But the item took 16 days(!) to arrive, 7 days from purchase (May 01) until shipped
(May 07), and another 9 days until delivery (May16). The purchase was intended as
a Mother's Day gift based on seller's estimated delivery of Sat. May 04 - Thurs. May 09
and ended up 5 days late. Disappointing!
