Synopsis
A dark tale of America's dysfunctional coming years, and of the timeless and tender feelings that just might bring us back from the brink. "In the near future, America is crushed by a financial crisis and our patient Chinese creditors may just be ready to foreclose on the whole mess. Then Lenny Abramov, son of a Russian immigrant janitor and ardent fan of 'printed, bound media artifacts' (aka books), meets Eunice Park, an impossibly cute Korean American woman with a minor in Assertiveness. Could falling in love redeem a planet falling apart?" -- p. [4] of paperback cover.
