SINCLAIR LEWIS MEETS THE HUNGER GAMES For fans of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale or Philip Roth's The Plot Against America. In an alternate American future, President McCain dies and Vice President Palin takes over--and does all that she promised in her campaign. “They said what they would do, and we did not listen. Then they did what they said they would do.” And so the country is ruled by a theocratic law called "The Blessing," and those who defy this system must live on the edge of society, hoping that democracy can rise to triumph over such tyrannical oppression. "Dytopian, wonkish fun for the Maddow set." —Kirkus Reviews
