The Pulitzer Prizewinning author of American Pastoral delivers the astonishing story of the rise and fall of an American man whose life is destroyed in the McCarthy witchhunt of the 1950s.'Gripping.... A masterly, often unnerving, blend of tenderness, harshness, insight and wit.' The New York Times Book ReviewI Married a Communist is the story of Ira Ringold, a big American roughneck who begins life as a teenage ditchdigger in 1930s Newark, becomes a bigtime 1940s radio star, and is destroyed, as both a performer and a man, in the McCarthy witchhunt.In his heyday as a starand as a zealous, bullying supporter of 'progressive' political causesIra marries Hollywood's beloved silentfilm star, Eve Frame. Their glamorous honeymoon in her Manhattan townhouse is shortlived, however, and it is the publication of Eve's scandalous bestselling expos that identifies him as 'an American taking his orders from Moscow.'In this story of cruelty, betrayal, and revenge spilling over into the public arena from their origins in Ira's turbulent personal life, Philip Rothwho Commonweal calls the 'master chronicler of the American twentieth centuryhas written a brilliant fictional protrayal of that treacherous postwar epoch when the antiCommunist fever not only infected national politics but traumatized the intimate, innermost lives of friends and families, husbands and wives, parents and children.
