Put oslobođenja

Put oslobođenja

Richard Yates

After being created by revolution and war for independence, America proudly followed the path of liberation, individualism and self-realization, which would lead to victory in two world wars and the status of a global superpower.

The 1950s brought an era of prosperity in the shadow of the Cold War, and with it a blind, desperate need for security at any cost. The spirit that created America is giving way to the new conformity and submissiveness of the consumer mentality. Frank Wheeler, a veteran of the Second World War, and his wife April, a trained actress, agreed to live in a typical suburban settlement of the new America, but only temporarily, until their children grow up, until they decide what they really want, until they find themselves. Only, can Frank find himself in an office on the fifteenth floor of the Knox Building, can April find herself in an idyllic cottage on the ironically named Liberation Road?
