The Good Crash: An Oral History of the Post-Scarcity Collapse b> Comedy Sci-fi Action Adventure
"Don't we all feel, deep down, that we deserve the apocalypse?"
APRIL, 2028—Global capitalism has collapsed. America has sealed itself off from the outside world, and inside its borders, a revolution rages.
All it took was one incredible little machine. That machine turned into two, then four, then eight... like a virus, the replicators spread.
As a work of oral history, The Good Crash features over 50 interviews with key witnesses to the events of 2027. The text is rendered in the words used by the interviewees themselves, with light editing for clarity and concision. As such, the book contains language and themes that are not appropriate for children.
By capturing the voices to the people at the very root of the revolution, journalist and historian R. Vondersnitch has traced the origins and aftermath of the replicators' rapid spread. Crucially, the book also includes perspectives and testimony from those who attempted to stop the spread of the reps. "Some of these are heroes, too, in their own ways," the author writes in the book's introductory note.
