Luther Dunphy is an ardent Evangelical who envisions himself as acting out God's will when he assassinates an abortion provider in his small Ohio town while Augustus Voorhees, the idealistic doctor who is killed, leaves behind a wife and children scarred and embittered by grief. In her moving, insightful portrait, Joyce Carol Oates fully inhabits the perspectives of two interwoven families whose destinies are defined by their warring convictions and squarely-but with great empathy-confronts an intractable, abiding rift in American society. A Book of American Martyrs is a stunning, timely depiction of an issue hotly debated on a national stage but which makes itself felt most lastingly in communities torn apart by violence and hatred. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Assassination $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Grief $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Pro-life movement $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Pro-choice movement $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Physicians $x Crimes against $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Trials (Murder) $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Ohio $v Fiction. 650 7 $a FICTION $x Psychological. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Assassination. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00818962 650 7 $a Families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 $a Grief. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00947883 650 7 $a Murder. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029781 650 7 $a Physicians $x Crimes against. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01906130 650 7 $a Pro-choice movement. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01077721 650 7 $a Pro-life movement. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01077725 650 7 $a Trials (Murder) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01156368 651 7 $a Ohio. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205075 655 4 $a Audiobooks. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726208 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726481 655 7 $a Suspense fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726755 700 1 $a Hellegers, Neil, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Gilbert, Tavia, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Potter, Kirsten, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Postel, Donna, $e narrator. 700 1 $a Colacci, David, $e narrator. 941 $a 2 945 $a cdab 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20170823010803.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20170708010856.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7D210DC224C511E7A329D3D3DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b JIWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
