Hailed by the *New York Times* 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,' *Fahrenheit 451*, and *Dog Soldiers*, screened *Star Wars* and *Apocalypse Now* several times, dropped a lot of acid and listened to hours of Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling Stones," *Fiskadoro* is a stunning novel of an all-too-possible tomorrow. Deeply moving and provacative, *Fiskadoro* brilliantly presents the sweeping and heartbreaking tale of the survivors of a devastating nuclear war and their attempts to salvage remnants of the old world and rebuild their culture.
