Description
After a series of global catastrophes brings industrial civilization to an end, the residents of Union Grove, New York, must rebuild their lives around dwindling resources, local ingenuity, and fragile community ties. As one unsettled summer unfolds, ordinary struggles over food, work, safety, and belonging reveal the tensions—and unexpected possibilities—of a society forced to live without modern infrastructure. Blending speculative fiction with social commentary, the novel explores resilience, dependence, and what it means to create a sustainable future by hand.
