Susan Weissbach Friedman recommends
The Die (2024)
Jude Berman
"Jude Berman expertly juxtaposes a dystopian world of dictatorship and deceit with a millennia-old story. In this cautionary tale about what can happen when democracy is taken for granted, she contrasts themes of fear, oppression, and passivity with those of hope, community, and action. I strongly recommend this fascinating read."
