- Description
- The sweeping, meticulously detailed, and plot-driven historical fiction of Leon Uris balances compelling adventure and romance stories with provocative social commentary. His epic, intricately plotted novels feature diverse casts of characters - one novel can contain the perspectives of a Nazi doctor, an American pilot, and a Russian officer - who confront some of the most complex problems of 20th-century history: revolts in Ireland, the Holocaust, and Arab-Israeli relations. Though his characterization can be thin and his pointed political views controversial, many admire Uris' ability to weave gripping narratives with informative, exhaustively researched exposition.
