AMERICA'S FUTURE IS CIVIL WAR.
SARAT'S REALITY IS SURVIVAL.
THEY TOOK HER FATHER.
THEY TOOK HER HOME.
THEY TOLD HER LIES.
SHE DIDN'T START THIS WAR.
BUT SHE'LL END IT.
'[American War] creates as haunting a post-apocalyptic universe as Cormac McCarthy did in The Road, and as devastating a look at the fallout that national events have on an American family as Philip Roth did in The Plot Against America' Michiko Kakutani, New York Times
'So sharply observed . . . Hard to resist' Sunday Times
'1984 meets The Handmaid's Tale' Prima
'Convincing, compelling and very bloody scary' Metro
