Book Reviews of Vida
Book Review: A tutorial on radical underground operational security
Summary: 5 Stars
Ever wonder how those people live, those who choose the radical path in our society? Marge Piercy tells you -- I can think of few better novels that show how those long-ago radicals moved around and communicated, back in the day. A couple of Gerald Seymour's books come close. I strongly recommend this novel highly to anyone studying today's radical fringe, be it al-Qaeda or the Euro-rads. Those people don't pull off major actions very often, because so much of their time and energy is devoted to keeping themselves and their associates secure.
Summary of Vida
"This epic story is fueled with intense commitment and sensuousness."LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK REVIEW
Vida was their star--the beautiful, charismatic radical from the pages of LIFE magazine--the symbol of the passionate rebellion of the sixties. Now, ten years later, the shouting is over, but Vida is still on the run. Staying in Network hideouts, traveling disguised, fearing every glance, she finds her best protection is her distrust of everyone--a lesson learned from past treacheries. And now, knowing the dangers, she finds herself warming again toward a man, an outcast ten years younger than herself.
