In True Believers, Kurt Andersen—the New York Times bestselling and critically acclaimed author of Heyday and Turn of the Century—delivers his most powerful and moving novel yet.
“This is the end of the world as we’ve known
it,” Kurt Andersen writes in Reset. “But it
isn’t the end of the world.” In this smart and
refreshingly hopeful book, Andersen–a brilliant analyst and
synthesizer of historical and cultural trends, as well as a
bestselling novelist and host of public radio’s Studio
360–shows us why the current economic crisis is actually
a moment of great opportunity to get ourselves and our nation back
on track.
As big and exciting as the next century, this is a novel of real
life at our giddy, feverish, topsy-turvy edge of the millennium.
Turn of the Century is a good old-fashioned novel about the
day after tomorrow--an uproarious, exquisitely observed panorama of
our world as the twentieth century morphs into the twenty-first,
transforming family, marriage, and friendship and propelled by the
supercharged global businesses and new technologies that make
everyone's lives shake and spin a little faster.
