About This Book
It is 1998, the year in which America is whipped into a frenzy of
prurience by the impeachment of a president, and in a small New England
town, an aging classics professor, Coleman Silk, is forced to retire
when his colleagues decree that he is a racist. The charge is a lie, but
the real truth about Silk would have astonished even his most virulent
accuser.
Coleman Silk has a secret, one which has been kept for fifty years from
his wife, his four children, his colleagues, and his friends, including
the writer Nathan Zuckerman. It is Zuckerman who stumbles upon Silk's
secret and sets out to reconstruct the unknown biography of this
eminent, upright man, esteemed as an educator for nearly all his life,
and to understand how this ingeniously contrived life came unraveled.
And to understand also how Silk's astonishing private history is, in the
words of The Wall Street Journal, "magnificently" interwoven with "the
larger public history of modern America."
