Left-wing author pens ‘autobiographical’ novel on controversial youthful theme.
Jerome Segal: A Political Candidate Like No Other
Prepare to be captivated by Jerome Segal, a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Maryland who has written a political campaign literature unlike anything you’ve ever read before. While most candidates offer dull memoirs on leadership, Segal takes a bold and personal approach in his “psychological and autobiographical novel” titled 85 Rochdale Road.
In this audiobook, narrated with a charming British accent, Segal delves into the protagonist’s unusual obsession with his alluring aunt and the regret he carries for not acting on his desires. Set in a one-bedroom summer cottage on the outskirts of a 1930s socialist commune, the story follows Sam as he unravels the complexities of his youth and the impact of his relatives on his life.
One fateful night, Sam’s aunt chooses to stay with him instead of returning to the city with her husband, setting the stage for a potentially explosive encounter. However, the moment passes, leaving Sam to grapple with the lingering what-ifs and the memories of their intimate moments together.
But who is Jerome Segal, you may wonder? He is not your typical candidate. With a background in academia and activism, Segal founded the Jewish Peace Lobby and was part of the first American Jewish delegation to meet with the Palestinian Liberation Organization. He is known for his anti-Israel stance and his commitment to socialism.
Through 85 Rochdale Road, Segal explores the immigrant experience and the clash between the American Dream and socialist ideals. As the Teres family navigates their newfound success in America, they find themselves embroiled in disputes over property and inheritance, highlighting the tension between individualism and collective responsibility.
Segal’s novel is a thought-provoking and introspective journey that challenges conventional political literature. If you’re ready to delve into a unique narrative that pushes boundaries, 85 Rochdale Road is a must-read.
