Firewater: A Green Novel (Akashic Rural Surreal)

Fiction. FIREWATER is a brutally funny environmental suspense novel featuring Chief Shelldrake, favorite son for the US presidency and last hope for the world's survival. A perfect anti-hero for the post-apocalypse, Shelldrake is equal parts Ralph Nader (in his zealous environmental activism), Sitting Bull (in his proud tribal loyalties), Huey Long (in his fiery demagogic populism), and William Jefferson Clinton (in his unquenchable appetite for voluptuous young women). "A comic, surrealistic response to a very real problem: the collusion of government and big business to create `the science of death and the death of science. a monoculture of death'.a wild romp"--Library Journal.
