Foreign Correspondent

Joanna Howard

4.9/5 (21218 ratings)

Description:Fiction. FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT is about a girl reporter, Johnnie James, in search of international intrigue and romantic excitement. This short novel, written in evocative imagistic sections of short prose, follows Johnnie as she encounters philosophers, jaunty sports journalists, exotic lap birds, retired cage fighters, intrepid doppelganger gal-pals, Marxist sci-fi heart-throbs, fiery martial-arts vixens, and wizened jiu-jitsu masters, all the while fantasizing about ghosts, ninjas, birdmen, yakuza gangsters, wolf dogs, World War II spies, windmills, and volcanic lakes. Drawing heavily on language and tropes from Alfred Hitchcock's film of the same title, the novel revels in fantasies of the stylized reportage and field research inspired by that film, but also takes up other corresponding forms--love letters, fan letters, telegrams, communiques and dispatches--in general, many forms in which we pour our desires into language expressly for others: seeking to better understand and draw close what is distant, those who are familiar to us, as well as those who are foreign to us.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
