Gold Fame Citrus: A Novel

"The prose is stunning in this beautiful, meditative exploration of tomorrow’s likeliest nightmare. That’s when Claire Vaye Watkins has set her new dystopia du jour novel, Gold Fame Citrus: just over a too-near horizon where everything in the American West is drought and lack and death. Where the water is gone and the people are gone and the Southwest has become a wild, weird, rolling apocalypse that, sure, is a fiction today but might be history by next year."
