Atomic Family
Autor Ciera Horton McElroyen Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 feb 2023
- An enduring and timeless environmental fiction: While a general audience will also enjoy this book, fans of Charlotte McNaughty's Once There Were Wolves and Richard Powers' The Overstory will find a new favorite eco-fiction novel in Nuclear Family. While the book takes place decades ago, this narrative is increasingly relevant to a world combating environmental crisis.
- Debut novel from a powerful emerging voice: In addition to fiction published in a number of journals, Ciera has written for film and digital projects. In Nuclear Family, she masterfully evokes the early 1960s—the daily life of housewives on the edge of a revolution, as well as the fraught atmosphere of the duck-and-cover era.
- Inspired by McElroy's real-life family story: This impeccably researched story is inspired by McElroy's grandfather, who was a nuclear physicist at an atomic plant in the South in the 1960s. McElroy drew from a rich family history, photographs, declassified reports, and primary sources in crafting this novel.
