Whither, Utopia - Paperback

by Erik Deckers (Author)

Twenty years after nearly all the conservatives in the world died, the liberals have their ideal utopia. And they're screwing it up.

Education and the arts receive more money than they need, everyone gets along, and all differences are celebrated and embraced. So why are people unhappy?

Sara Cooper-Wright, a student at Appleseed College in Appleseed, Ohio, is fed up with the current system of school-approved protests for class credit. She wants to rebel, to act out, to do something that will make people sit up and take notice. So she does the unthinkable and starts the Students for a Conservative Future.

Mayor Sheila Windsong and her deputy mayor, Enrique Medina, don't see Sara's little group as a threat until Will Gant, a history professor and political moderate, decides to run for mayor. They see Will and Sara as a threat and will do anything they can to quash his plans and continue their rampant reign of corruption.

If you're a fan of political satire and bureaucratic boobery, or ever wondered how a utopian future could ever go wrong, this book is for you. If you loved Catch-22, The Woody, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, or The Short Reign of Pippin IV, then you'll love Whither, Utopia.
