| Plot |
| At once humorous and harrowing, BELIEVING CASSANDRA reminds readers that regardless of how much we think we're in control of our destinies, we will at some point have to find a sustainable way of living, or face extinction. Atkisson draws on the classic tale of doom-saying to illustrate how present the threat really is, and argues that the extreme changes he advocates are better than total annihilation.* |
