About the Book

Too much angst for you? Me too. This is an attempt to show how silly and dangerous the ‘my way or the highway’ attitudes have become. The allegory takes place in a zero sort recycling bin with national left and right wing newspapers arguing over contemporary topics like healthcare, gun control and more. There are lovers triangles and hacked cars to lighten some of the heavier dialogue. The author believes we are more in agreement, at least regarding goals than we might think. If we can stop talking past each other with a bit more respect, we might accomplish something. With the world being economically entwined and getting more dangerous, we need a press core we can depend on. Can you be more open to other thoughts and different people?
