She Who Is Alive

By Robert Harris

Fiction. The reader plugs herself into the death drive dream of SHE WHO IS ALIVE for a glide through the residual terror of the white part of the twentieth century. Imaginary. She asks herself along the way the disturbing question, 'Why do I love every minute of it?' Harris's novel is a thriller and a theory of a thriller, or of what thrills - subtle, elegant, ghostly writing -- Carla Harryman.

Before War Breaks Out

In Robert Harris's extraordinary story about the adventures of spies and triple agents in a National Homeland preparing for war, the transparent exposition and clearcut dialogue reveal each character in 3-D without giving away a single bizarre plot too soon or explaining any of them ever. She Who Is Alive should fascinate readers whose taste in mysteries runs to Raymond Roussel, Franklin W. Dixon/Carolyn Keene, and tomorrow's headlines. It knocked out one reader twice.
