Cynthia Kraack, author of "Minnesota Cold" will be interviewed on KFAI Write on Radio! at 11:00 am.
Minnesota Cold, a speculative fiction work in the tradition of Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaids’ Tale or James Howard Kunstler’s World Made by Hand, looks at a post-nuclear incident society where an unholy collaboration of government and large corporations rules one region of the former United States. Although life returns to a somewhat normal state, labor requirements and limited housing cause stress.
At the core, dissatisfied residents question how much personal freedom a society is willing to relinquish for a sense of personal safety. An unlikely hero will force the both discussion and action.
