O knihe
Whether you lived through the 1960s or were born later and are fascinated by the Civil Rights and anti-war struggles and cultural upheavals of that era, you will find Cold War ¿ A Love Story, by John Catalinotto, engrossing reading. Joe Cozzo, the novel's protagonist, is a living, breathing contradiction: a math student from New York City who becomes a fighter, first against the war in Vietnam and racist discrimination, and then for world revolution. The plot follows Joe from the Berlin Wall in 1961 to the Bronx in 1963 to the turmoil in the U.S. Armed Forces, to the Paris uprising of students and workers in May 1968 to Portugal's Carnation Revolution in 1974-75. Joe, his first love, Diane, his comrades Mirabelle, Tomi, Danny, Manuel and Urbano are all fictitious figures strongly inspired by real people the author met in his six decades of militancy. Some readers will recall the convictions, struggles and defeats of those times. Others will want to absorb the atmosphere and lessons of that history as they face today's challenges.
