Writing in an Age of Silence by Sara Paretsky
Explores the traditions of political and literary dissent that have informed the author's life and work, against the unparallelled repression of free speech and thought in the USA. In tracing the writer's difficult journey from silence to speech, this work evokes Chicago - the city with which she has become indelibly associated.
