What is Fiskadoro about?
<p><P>Hailed by the <i>New York Times</i> as "wildly ambitious" and "the sort of book that a young Herman Melville might have written had he lived today and studied such disparate works as the Bible, 'The Wasteland,' <i>Fahrenheit 451,</i> and <i>Dog Soldiers,</i> screened <i>Star Wars</i> and <i>Apocalypse Now</i> several times, dropped a lot of acid and listened to hours of Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling Stones," <i>Fiskadoro</i> is a stunning novel of an all-too-possible tomorrow. Deeply moving and provacative, <i>Fiskadoro</i> brilliantly presents the sweeping and heartbreaking tale of the survivors of a devastating nuclear war and their attempts to breaking tale of the survivors of a devastating nuclear war and their attempts to salvage remnants of the old world and rebuild their culture.</p>
