    I made an attempt a few years ago, but the way this book was written really hasn’t aged well. I found it dull and patronizing and gave up.

    Philip Roth’s “The Plot Against America” is a much better book if you ask me, dealing with similar themes but written more recently.

      It definitely took me a bit to get into, but the scathing indictment of the upper middle class liberal pearl clutching in the face of fascist violence eventually hooked me.

      I’ll give “The Plot Against America” a try.
