Plague Journal

En savoir plus sur le livre

Nathaniel Delaney takes over the journal The Echo founded by his grandmother Anne. As major events shake Northern America, Delaney witnesses his country silently slipping from democracy into totalitarianism. He is one of the last voices in the media attempting to tell the whole truth about what is happening. In seeking to protect his children and save what remains of his life, he makes a choice that will transform the future of each member of his family and many others. Throughout the story, he keeps a journal of observation, reporting the escalation of events and analyzing the motives of his political opponents with chilling transparency. As his world collapses, he is forced to deeply examine the meaning of his own positions and compromises, his successes and failures. The plague journal chronicles the struggle of a deeply modern man tested in his last spiritual and psychological resources, a man who, in losing himself, finds himself.
