Description
Parrot and Olivier in America is a story of two men from different worlds, brought together by circumstance and fate. Born into families with vastly different histories, they embark on a journey to America, one that will test their loyalties, challenge their perceptions, and reveal the complexities of democracy.
The narrative shifts between the perspectives of Parrot and Olivier, as they navigate love, politics, prisons, and the world of art. With dazzling wit and inventiveness, Peter Carey explores the adventure of American democracy, in theory and in practice.
