Travel is horse-drawn and farming is back at the center of life, but Union Grove is no pastoral haven. Wars are fought over dwindling resources and illness is a constant presence. Bandits roam the countryside, preying on the weak and a sinister cult threatens to shatter the town's fragile stability. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn a novel that is both shocking yet eerily convincing, Kunstler seamlessly weaves hot-button issues such as the decline of oil and the perils of climate change into a compelling narrative of violence, religious hysteria, innocence lost, and love found.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Howard Kunstler was born in New York City in 1948.
