 riveting book about a very complicated subject, Ms. Faludi... does a 
 remarkable job tracking down the truth about her father, a person of 
 multiple and contradictory identities...Ms. Faludi unfolds her father's 
 story like the plot of a detective novel.\n-The Wall Street Journal\n\n"An 
 absolute stunner of a memoir probing, steel-nerved, moving in ways you'd 
 never expect." - The New York Times\n\nSusan Faludi's extraordinary inquiry 
 into the meaning of identity in the modern world and in her own jaunted 
 family saga. When the feminist writer learned that her seventy-six year-old 
 father -long estranged and living in Hungary-had undergone sex reassignment 
 surgery, that investigation would turn personal and urgent . How was this 
 new parent who claimed to be "a complete woman now" connected to the 
 silent, explosive, and ultimately violent father she had known, the 
 photographer who's built his career on the alteration of images?\n\nFaludi 
 chases that mystery into the recesses of her suburban childhood and her 
 father's many previous incarnations: American dad, Alpine mountaineer, 
 swashbuckling adventurer in the Amazon outback, Jewish fugitive in 
 Holocaust Budapest. When the author travels to Hungary to reunite with her 
 father, she drops into a labyrinth of dark histories and dangerous politics 
 in a country hell-bent on repressing its past and constructing a 
 fanciful-and virulent-nationhood... \n\nSusan Faludi is the author of 
 Stiffed: The Betrayal of the American Man, and Backlash: The Undeclared War 
 Against American Women, winner of the National Book Critics; Circle Award 
 for Nonfiction. \n\nKRIS WELCH is a veteran, very popular KPFA on-air host, 
 a mother, and a grandmother.\n\n$12 advance, $15 door.\n
