Writers on the Record with Victoria Lautman

Francine Prose

/ March 20, 2005 / A Changed Man

With more than twenty books published—novels, short-story collections, non-fiction, children’s books—Prose is as gifted as she is prolific, and isn’t afraid of being controversial. This novel tackles a darkly-comic subject: what would happen if a young neo-Nazi switched sides and began working for a human rights organization founded by a Holocaust survivor? Through intimate inner monologues from four disparate central characters, Prose convincingly channels the shifting, intense observations and emotions. Her earlier work includes Blue Angel, The Lives of the Muses, Household Saints, Primitive People, Guided Tours of Hell, Hunters and Gatherers, Gluttony and many others.Listen Now
