... at once thoughtful, engaging and unsettling, but more than anything, wickedly funny... Strelich's profane, irreverent vision of a realignment of human sensibilities to save an undeserving world serves up a rewarding read. -Virginia Brackett, author of In the Company of Patriots
That dystopian future they always warned us about? It turns out we're already in it.
The earth's magnetic poles have reversed and civilization has just had its clock reset to the great cosmic flashing 12:00 a.m. from almost a million years ago, and humanity, and everybody in it, is pretty much forgetting everything it learned since then.
Everybody except Hertell Daggett, who remembers pretty much everything because he'd once been shot in the head - the doctors got the bullet out but missed a few tiny specks of copper that remained, floating inside his brain, connecting him to the things everybody else on earth is slowly forgetting. Hertell sees an opportunity to start civilization all over again and maybe even get it right this time. What could possibly go wrong?
