That story, she writes, essentially is the working out of a question that the founders raised in the 1700s and every generation since has struggled to answer: Can a people rule themselves “by reflection and election, by reason and truth, rather than by accident and violence, by prejudice and deceit?” Lepore, a Harvard University history professor known for her lucid New Yorker essays on American life and culture, dives into the cross-grained American epic starting with Christopher Columbus in 1492 and ending with Donald Trump in 2016. ![]() history in “These Truths,” a title taken from a Jeffersonian clause in that same declaration.

Setting this one down and getting to the very end was a surreal experience that sent a chill down my spine. Part of hating all of them makes the novel good though. Every single one of them whines and gripes and are so fucking pretentious it is laughable. It DID manage to really capture my attention though, so I can't rate it lower I only wish the author had gotten to the point a little quicker.Īlso, holy shit, these kids are all assholes. The setup too a bit too long, you know from the beginning there is a murder and Flannery did it and all this other unimportant banal things are being talked about instead. The only reason I am not giving it four stars is that the beginning took a while for me to get into. I had guessed a bit of the twist near the end a little earlier on, but I wasn't sure if I was right or not up until they said it because of the completely unreliable narrator you really couldn't be sure of anything. This is one of the most unreliable narrators I think I have ever come across and for that alone it gets two stars right there. I do know that that 3 stars is really more like 3.5ish because while I still don't know if I liked the book, I sure as hell am glad I read it. I am not at all sure how I feel about this book yet. ![]() ![]() ![]()
