Description

Equal parts The Sun Also Rises, The Manchurian candidate, and A Confederacy of Dunces- this roman a clef tells the story of what happens when a dispossessed DC political operative meets the first person born in a Belize free from British colonial rule. The resulting ill-advised candidacy leads to political failure and personal tragedy while examining many themes of the day such as populism, the political power of social media, and controversies over borders.
