Her arrival coincides with an explosion of activity--artists colonize a deserted and industrial SoHo, stage actions in the East Village, blur the line between life and art. Reno is submitted to a sentimental education of sorts--by dreamers, poseurs, and raconteurs in New York and by radicals in Italy, where she goes with her lover to meet his estranged and formidable family. Ardent, vulnerable, and bold, Reno is a fiercely memorable observer, superbly realized by Rachel Kushner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rachel Kushner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1797142313\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781797142319\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster Audio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.60h x 5.80w x 1.10d","brand":"Rachel Kushner","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":44054798041343,"sku":"9781797142319","price":55.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9c5412d1-e021-4cad-8e7f-607728ff1fc9.jpg?v=1685032055","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-flamethrowers-rachel-kushner-9781797142319","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
