| 內容簡介： |
Doctorow''s new novel is set towards the end of the American
Civil War and follows General Sherman''s epic march with sixty
thousand Union troops through Georgia and the Carolinas, one of the
major manoeuvres to bring the war to its conclusion. THE MARCH
ranges widely over a diverse set of characters - each of whom is
brilliantly realised - so that we see the war through the eyes of
both white- skinned Pearl daughter of slave and slave owner and
General Sherman; a deserting confederate who sets himself up as a
photographer; a ruthless army surgeon who enjoys his reputation as
an amputator; and the two brothers of a brutal slave owner who find
themselves in uniforms facing Sherman''s forces. Doctorow''s
narrative brilliantly blends the intimate and the epic, sweeping
the reader along the route of Sherman''s notorious march and making
us care deeply about each individual''s fate.
