Description
Lorraine Adams's fiction is timely and relevant. Her concerns range from the U.S. intervention in foreign nations, the internal politics of empire, and the effects of both on the individual. Her novels are simultaneously psychological thrillers and oblique political commentary. Although her language is plain and straightforward, even deadpan, there is an unstated atmosphere of menace in her work. Adams's characters are frequently unreadable, their intentions remaining opaque until they're moved to action. One gets a sense of a lesson being imparted, a feeling that Adams is subtly conveying her great distaste for the indiscriminate use of power. Start with: Harbor
