During the space of a day in Rome in 1933, a tenlira coin passes through the hands of nine peopleincluding an aging artist, a prostitute, and a wouldbe assassin of Mussolini. The coin becomes the symbol of contact between human beings, each lost in private passions and nearly impenetrable solitude.'A Coin in Nine Hands has . . . passages that move close to poetry and a story that belongs in both literature and history.'Doris Grumbach, Los Angeles Times Book Review'What lingers at the end of A Coin in Nine Hands is the shadowiness and puppetlike vagueness of the Dictator, and the compelling specificity of the socalled 'common people' revolving all around him.'Anne Tyler, The New Republic'Within a few pages we have met half the major characters in this haunting, brilliantly constructed novel. . . . The studied perfection, the structural intricacy and brevity remind one of Camus. Yet by comparison, Yourcenar's prose is lavish, emotional and imagistic.'Cynthia King, Houston Post'Transcends its specific time and place to become a portrait of vividly delineated characters caught in the vise of a tragically familiar political situation.'Publisher's WeeklyBest known as the author of Memoirs of Hadrian and The Abyss, Marguerite Yourcenar (190387) achieved countless literary honors and was the first woman ever elected to the Acadmie Franaise.
