| |  | | | In Brief This novel is set in an America of the future. The story is told by Eugene Debs Hartke, a West Point graduate and Vietnam veteran, as he awaits trial for complicity in a mass escape from a black prison where he has been teaching inmates to read. It is 2001: "most of the United States has been sold to foreigners, and what is left is broken down and depleted. Black markets, racewar, martial law, tuberculosis and AIDS are all somewhere between endemic andepidemic." (N Y Times Book Rev)
| | | | Annotation A small, exclusive college in upstate New York is nestled along the frozen shores of Lake Mohiga . . . and directly across from a maximum-security prison. The two institutions manage to coexist peacefully, until 10,000 prisoners break out and head directly for the college. "Sharp-toothed satire . . . absurd humor."--San Francisco Chronicle.

"Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae."
