God Save Texas

En savoir plus sur le livre

"A beautifully written portrait of a place ... Lawrence Wright's portrait of his much misunderstood home state reveals a big-hearted, unsentimental and benign giant ... provides some much needed insights into the febrile condition of America." MATT FREI, FINANCIAL TIMES. "A pleasing campfire stew of memoir, reportage and historical digression" BENJAMIN MARKOVITS, GUARDIAN. "Rich, gun-toting and brash, Texas shows where the country is heading ... A liberal who understands its conservative heart, Lawrence is at once besotted and repelled ... Love Texas, and it loves you right back. But mess with Texas and it turns so mean, as the saying goes, that it wouldn't spit in your ear if your brain was on fire." BEN MACINTYRE, THE TIMES. "Superb." DAVID OSHINSKY, THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW.
