Download Purity: A Novel AudioBook Free
A magnum opus for our morally complicated times from the author of Freedom. Young Pip Tyler doesn't know who she is. She knows that her real name is Purity, that she's saddled with $130,000 in pupil arrears, that she's squatting with anarchists in Oakland, and this her romance with her mom - her only family - is hazardous. But she does not have a hint who her dad is, why her mom chose to live as a recluse with an invented name, or how she'll ever have a standard life. Enter the Germans. A glancing encounter with a German peacefulness activist leads Pip to an internship in South America with The Sunlight Project, an organization that traffics in all the secrets of the world - including, Pip hope, the secret of her origins. TSP is the brainchild of Andreas Wolf, a charismatic provocateur who rose to fame in the chaos following show up of the Berlin Wall membrane. Now on the lam in Bolivia, Andreas is drawn to Pip for reasons she doesn't understand, and the power of her reaction to him upends her regular ideas of right and wrong. Purity is a grand history of younger idealism, extreme fidelity, and murder. The author of The Corrections and Freedom has dreamed a world of vividly original character types - Californians and East Germans, good parents and bad parents, journalists and leakers - and he employs their intertwining pathways through landscapes as modern-day as the omnipresent Internet as historical as the battle between your sexes. Purity is the most daring and penetrating booklet yet by one of the major authors of the time. This audiobook includes a bonus discussion with the author.
