The Unknown Terrorist
The Unknown Terrorist: A Novel | Richard Flanagan
2 posts | 5 read | 2 to read
From the internationally acclaimed author of Goulds Book of Fish comes an astonishing new novel, a riveting portrayal of a society driven by fear. What would you do if you turned on the television and saw you were the most wanted terrorist in the country? Gina Davies is about to find out when, after a night spent with an attractive stranger, she becomes a prime suspect in the investigation of an attempted terrorist attack. In The Unknown Terrorist, one of the most brilliant writers working in the English language today turns his attention to the most timely of subjects what our leaders tell us about the threats against us, and how we cope with living in fear. Chilling, impossible to put down, and all too familiar, The Unknown Terrorist is a relentless tour de force that paints a devastating picture of a contemporary society gone haywire, where the ceaseless drumbeat of terror alert levels, newsbreaks, and fear of the unknown pushes a nation ever closer to the breaking point.

@CarolynM 7 books on the left of my TBR shelf. I think I may have already read a couple of them.
Love to see anyone else‘s 7 books to the left on any of their shelves. @MrsMalaprop

CarolynM Lovely 😍 What is the Richard Flanagan like? I was put off by the only one of his I have read 4y
Jeg @CarolynM That is one I haven‘t read . I think it‘s on the shelf because it was an op shop bargain. 😊. It doesn‘t jump out at me as one I want to read at the moment. 😊. Often I have to cull these shelves as I come to realise there are books there I‘ll never read! 4y

Erschreckend, aber wahr. Wenn man sich vieles aus der Medienberichterstattung von heute ansieht... Hm. 🤔
