Description
A family falls apart as America is overtaken by totalitarian rule in this near-future dystopian novel echoing Sinclair Lewis's It Can't Happen Here.In 2035, fourteen-year-old Louise is interviewing her family members to find out what went wrong--for the family and the nation. It seems both started falling apart around 2019. Then the 2020 elections were canceled, and the president remained in power for sixteen years. This is the story of one family divided by ideology, and of undying hope in the direst of circumstances.
In 1935, Sinclair Lewis challenged readers to imagine an America hijacked by a totalitarian president whose message was fueled by fear, division, and "patriotism." Richard Dresser's It Happened Here delivers a modern vision of just such an America. Told through the interwoven voices of eight different characters, it reveals how the Weeks family navigates the slow death of democracy in the country they all love.
