A very modern blend of Russian, Jewish, Korean, and New England WASP, they love one another deeply but the pressures of life in an unstable America are fraying their bonds. Theres Daddy, a struggling, cash-thirsty editor whose Russian heritage gives him a surprising new currency in the upside-down world of twenty-first-century geopolitics; his wife, Anne Mom, a progressive, underfunded blue blood from Boston whos barely holding the household together; their son, Dylan, whose blond hair and Mayflower lineage provide him pride of place in the newly forming American political order; and, above all, the young Vera, half-Jewish, half-Korean, and wholly original.</p><p>Observant, sensitive, and always writing down new vocabulary words, Vera wants only three things in life: to make a friend at school; Daddy and Anne Mom to stay together; and to meet her birth mother, Mom Mom, who will at last tell Vera the secret of who she really is and how to ensure loves survival in this great, mad, imploding world.</p><p>Both biting and deeply moving, <em>Vera, or Faith</em> is a boldly imagined story of family and country told through the clear and tender eyes of a child. With a nod to <em>What Maisie Knew,</em> Henry Jamess classic story of parents, children, and the dark ironies of a rapidly transforming society, <em>Vera, or Faith</em> demonstrates why Shteyngart is, in the words of <em>The New York Times</em>, "one of his generations most exhilarating writers."</p>...7074268Vera, or Faith251349https://www.gandhi.com.mx/vera--or-faith-9780593595107/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7044224/image.jpg?v=638797825258200000InStockMXN99999PR_DIEbook2025Inglés
