Book Description:
|
With dead aim and withering wit, Willson takes on plutonium, radioactive materials in the sewers, ozone depletion, overpopulation, and more personal follies, like fundamentalism, free will, rituals, even satire itself. In the novella "Vermin" rats, cockroaches and crows debate the use of scarce resources, while wondering what could have become of the humans: "They were heavily into extermination."
