From ";a master of precision"; (The Observer, London) comes an explosive, provocative novel about John F. Kennedy’s years in the White house: his political daring, his brave dedication to human rights, his devotion to his familyand his uncontrollable and unrelenting appetite for sexual adventure. • Taut, magnificent prose: Mercurio’s premiseto chronicle Kennedy’s exploits, political and sexual, through the President’s own anguished but self-centered perspectiveis bold to the point of hubris, but he succeeds in spades. The writing is elegant, spare, and wry; the narrative is exquisitely paced. The book’s ending is emotionally shattering empathetic, redemptive, and shocking. • Startlingly revisionist portrait of JFK: We see Kennedy at his best, as a visionary statesman, a former soldier turned moral pacifist, a loving parent and devoted husband. And we see him at his worst, as a compulsive philanderer
