A New York Times Notable Book A Washington Post Notable Book A St. Louis Post-Dispatch Best Book of 2012 A 2013 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction Finalist From one of our most esteemed historical novelists, a remarkable retelling of the Watergate scandal, as seen through a kaleidoscope of its colorful perpetrators and investigators. For all the monumental documentation that Watergate generateduncountable volumes of committee records, court transcripts, and memoirsit falls at last to a novelist reconstruct some of the scandals greatest mysteries (who did erase those eighteen-and-a-half minutes of tape?) and to see this gaudy American catastrophe in its human entirety. In Watergate , Thomas Mallon conveys the drama and high comedy of the Nixon presidency through the urgent perspectives of seven characters we only thought we knew before now. Mallon achieves with Watergate a scope and historical intimacy that surpasses even what he attained in his previous novels, and turns a third-rate burglary into a tumultuous, first-rate entertainment. 0
