Continental Drift (novel) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Continental Drift (novel)
''Continental Drift'' is a 1985 novel by Russell Banks. Set in the early 1980s, it follows two plots, through which Banks explores the relationship between apparently distant people drawn together in the world under globalization, which Banks compares to the geologic phenomena of continental drift. The first plot features Bob DuBois, a working class New Englander who heads to Florida in the hopes of striking it rich; the second plot traces the journey of Vanise Dorsinville from Haiti to Florida. It is an avowedly political work, whose stated aim is to "destroy the world as it is."〔Banks, Continental Drift, p. 410〕 Despite its scope, it is according to critic Michiko Kakutani "somehow, acutely personal." After publishing ''Continental Drift'', Banks won the Dos Passos Prize for Literature.〔(Recipients of the John Dos Passos Prize for Literature )〕 ==References== 〔
