The After World: a novel Review
Available in paperback (love this editions cover)
5 stars
What a bleak, awesome, creative, masterful, apocalyptic dystopian novel that subtly pays homage to many works published before of the same genre without being obvious.
It is meta in many ways, futuristic, unrealistic, yet completely possible as a future for our demise as a human race, ignoring climate change.
The narrator is unique, and the last pages will turn the entire novel into something more. I binged it, but I couldn't put it down. I love the pertinent, accusatory, and conversation-starter Q&A at the end of each part as if this is a self-help book.
I felt the same reading this book as I feel if I watch a Lady Gaga video or listen to the comedian George Carlin while being surrounded by my fav dystopian books. Thank you, author, for this provocative ride.
