Beschreibung:
Roy & Me challenges genre in this cross between memoir and fiction, truth and distortion, as Yacowar explores his relationship with Roy Farran—soldier, politician, author, mentor, alleged kidnapper and murderer, and anti-Semite. Yacowar draws on both Farran’s writings and his own imagination, venturing into Farran’s mind to unleash new insights.
Maurice Yacowar challenges genre and form in Roy & Me, a cross between memoir and fiction, truth and distortion. It is the exploration of Yacowar’s relationship with Roy Farran—soldier, politician, author, mentor—and his conflict with Farran’s anti-Semitic past. Best known for his service with the British Special Air Service during World War II, Roy Farran served as a politician in the Legislative Assembly of Alberta for Premier Peter Lougheed. During his time in Israel as a soldier, Farran allegedly kidnapped and murdered a sixteen-year-old member of the Lehi group, also known as the Stern Gang.
Roy & Me is a memoir that edges toward fiction by venturing into Roy Farran’s thoughts, drawing simultaneously on his writings and Yacowar’s own imagination.
