Critics have compared him to Martin Amis, Zadie Smith, Tom Wolfe, and Don DeLillo. Grantadubbed him "one of the twenty best fiction writers under forty." Now Hari Kunzru delivers his"finest novel yet . . . bringing to the angry activism of the young in the late sixties all the suspenseof a spy thriller." (Lisa Appignanesi, author of Unholy Loves)Chris Carver is living a lie. His wife, their teenage daughter, and everyone in their circle know himas Michael Frame, suburban dad. They have no idea that as a radical student in the sixties hebriefly became a terrorist—protesting the Vietnam War by setting bombs around London. Andthen one day a ghost from his past turns up on his doorstep, forcing Chris on the run.As Chris flees, he remembers his days as an isolated youth, hopelessly in love with AnnaAddison, following her as she threw aside conventionality. Chris's rival for Anna's affections, thecharismatic Sean Ward, was the leader of the radical August 14th Group. Egging one another on,the three inched closer and closer to the edge, until the events of one horrifying night forced themapart, never to see one another again.Gripping, moving, provocative, and passionate, My Revolutions brings to brilliant life boththe radical idealism of the sixties and the darker currents that ran beneath it, the eddies of whichstill shape our history today.
