Environmental destruction, rising tide of violence in the wake of extremely exacerbated racial tension, fires blocking out the sun, a Poster-American as president who is woefully unqualified, economic collapse, a virus breaking the economy, it's all there. One of my favorite novels of the New Wave movement of the 60's-70's
That bit at the end where America is just covered in riots and revolutions and on the verge of collapse while some lib late night talk show is blithely trying to continue programming as usual is one of the most chilling things I've ever read, I really recommend it if ye haven't read it
Stand on Zanzibar's good too, brunner was mad prescient
Jagged orbit too, Man was a fucking dark wizard with how much shit he got right
