Hailed by the New York Times as "wildly ambitious"
and "the sort of book that a young Herman Melville might
have written had he lived today and studied such disparate
works as the Bible, 'The Wasteland,' Fahrenheit 451,
and Dog Soldiers, screened Star Wars and
Apocalypse Now several times, dropped a lot of acid
and listened to hours of Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling
Stones," Fiskadoro is a stunning novel of an
all-too-possible tomorrow. Deeply moving and provacative,
Fiskadoro brilliantly presents the sweeping and
heartbreaking tale of the survivors of a devastating nuclear
war and their attempts to breaking tale of the survivors of
a devastating nuclear war and their attempts to salvage
remnants of the old world and rebuild their culture.
