A novel from the author of "Bear v. Shark".
Socialist writer and political agitator, Upton Sinclair is dead. He is repeatedly dug up from his grave and brought back to life by optimistic leftists only to be gunned down (and once harpooned) by those seeking fame, fortune and the American Way. As Sinclair grows more insignificant to his ever-changing country, he continues to write embarrassingly bad, muckraking novels and risk his life for the socialist revolution, which he swears is just around the corner. In this dazzlingly funny satire of culture and politics, Bachelder skilfully documents the demise but dogged faith of the Left as well as the violence and hysteria of the Right.
