From the O. Henry Award–winning author of Rich Man, Poor Man, a provocative novel about a man's struggle with courage and conscience in the McCarthy era. Clement Archer, head of a popular radio show, faces a profound dilemma: Five of his employees stand accused of being communists, and a magazine threatens disclosure unless Archer fires each and every one. Despite his efforts to meet his own moral standards and avoid self-incrimination, Archer finds himself hounded from both ends of the political spectrum for his seemingly righteous actions. The Troubled Air, New York Times–bestselling author Irwin Shaw's second novel, was published immediately before the author moved to Europe, where he lived for the next twenty-five years. The story remains a powerful portrayal of a good, decent man ensnared by the hysteria and cruelty of a dark period in American history. "Shaw remains a genial, seductive storyteller." —Kirkus Reviews This ebook features an illustrated biography of Irwin Shaw including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author's estate.
