2084 Elaine Liner

In the year 2084, one party runs the government. The national prayer is "One God, one faith, one leader." This fast-moving, dark literary parable of repression and rebellion leads to a twist inspired by Orwell, Bradbury, Serling and Chayefsky. Author Elaine Liner calls her book's tone "dyst-hope-ian" -- meant to terrify you about what could happen with the hope that it never, ever does. "The messages in this book are not subtle; subtlety is for people who have time to spare. Liner is saying, `We don't.'" -- Dallas Voice critic Arnold Wayne Jones.
