SOPHIE`S CHOICE
STYRON, WILLIAM
Stingo, an inexperienced 22 year old Southerner, takes us back to the summer of 1947 and a boarding house in a leafy Brooklyn suburb. There, he meets Nathan, a fiery Jewish intellectual; and Sophie, a beautiful and fragile Polish Catholic. Ultimately, he arrives at the dark core of Sophie's past: her memories of pre-war Poland, and her choice.
