In both Dana Spiotta's "Eat the Document" and Sigrid Nunez's recent "The Last of Her Kind," you will be taken back to the radical protest movements of the late sixties and early seventies and then whipped back to the present to learn some of the consequences of--as well as present-day variations on--those movements. Both novels feature engaging characters and are worthwhile reads.
