Description
America: The Farewell Tour by Chris Hedges is a provocative examination of America in crisis. The country is convulsed by a range of pathologies, including the opioid crisis, a culture of sadism and hate, and a failed democracy. Chris Hedges argues that neither political party addresses the systemic problem, and that a corporate coup d'état has captured the nation. These ills are not only ravaging the country, but also have global implications, exacerbated by catastrophic climate change. Hedges writes a detailed analysis of the situation, seeking to jolt readers out of complacency and highlight the need for change. With sharply observed detail, he writes a requiem for the American dream, and seeks to expose the underlying causes of the nation's problems. Hedges's book is a timely and thought-provoking examination of America's current state, and the need for a fundamental shift in the way the country is governed.
