Publisher's Synopsis
In the year 2125, the world has spiraled into a dystopian abyss. Governments have become puppets to oligarchic rulers, personal freedoms are curtailed, and society is shackled by conformity and surveillance. Amid this bleak landscape, Rose, once a doctoral student with dreams of contributing to her field, now finds herself crushed under the weight of a government that prizes compliance over creativity.
"A Long Walk To Justice and Peace" tells the powerful story of Rose's audacious escape from an oppressive urban existence to a solitary life in the wilderness. Her journey from the crumbling city of San Francisco to the rugged hills above it is fraught with challenges that test her physical endurance and mental resolve. As she navigates through harsh landscapes and memories of a life derailed by systemic greed and corruption, Rose confronts the haunting question: Can one truly break free from the chains of an exploiting and overweening oligarchy?
With vivid descriptions and introspective dialogue, Anne Fisher crafts a narrative that is as much a survival story as it is a philosophical exploration of freedom and individuality. Rose's transformation from a resigned citizen to a resilient survivor is a compelling testament to the human spirit's capacity to adapt and thrive even in the most dire of circumstances.
Themes of autonomy, resistance, and the quest for identity are woven through the fabric of a story that is both personal and universally relevant. "A Long Walk To Justice and Peace" is an unflinching look at what it means to reclaim one's life in a world where true freedom is more than just a distant dream.
Perfect for fans of dystopian narratives and character-driven tales of resilience and personal triumph, "A Long Walk To Justice and Peace" is a must-read for those who yearn to see how the journey inward can be the most formidable expedition of all.
