About This Item

Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1967. A Hall of Mirrors served to identify a major new talent who lived up to his seeming promise with the critically acclaimed novels Dog Soldiers (1974, National Book Award), A Flag for Sunrise (1981), and Outerbridge Reach (1992). "Stone's position as a leading novelist has been well earned for the skill with which he imbues the novel of action with moral and political dimensions" (Stringer, 646). In 1970, A Hall of Mirrors was adapted into a movie, WUSA, with a screenplay by Stone and starring Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, Anthony Perkins, and Laurence Harvey.

Synopsis

Rheinhardt, a disk jockey and failed musician, rolls into New Orleans looking for work and another chance in life. What he finds is a woman physically and psychically damaged by the men in her past and a job that entangles him in a right-wing political movement. Peopled with civil rights activists, fanatical Christians, corrupt politicians, and demented Hollywood stars, A Hall of Mirrors vividly depicts the dark side of America that erupted in the sixties. To quote Wallace Stegner, "Stone writes like a bird, like an angel, like a circus barker, like a con man, like someone so high on pot that he is scraping his shoes on the stars."
