*In 1984 radical activist Luba Gold goes underground to support the
Puerto Rican independence movement.When Luba’s collective is targeted by
an FBI sting, she escapes with her baby but leaves behind a sensitive
envelope that is being safeguarded by a friend. When the FBI come
looking for Luba, the friend must decide whether to cooperate in the
search for the woman she loves.*
****
*Told in the voices of five different women who cross paths with Luba
over four decades, /Clandestine Occupations/ explores the difficult
decisions that each woman confronts about the limits of legality, the
risks of incarceration, and the conflicting demands of politics and
love.A revolutionary feminist epic with psychological depth, the book
spans the solidarity movements of the 1980’s to the awakenings of Occupy
and even beyond to a beautifully imagined insurgency of the future.*
****
*Based on lived experience, Diana Block’s bold new novel offers a
thought-provoking reflection on the risks and sacrifices of political
commitment, the damaging reverberations of disaffection and betrayal,
and the exhilarating possibilities of love through struggle.*
