In The Immolation James Edmonds offers up an urgent and powerful novel of ideas, transmuting French society's current dysfunction into a disturbing yet eerily recognizable potential future.His well-crafted portrait of France in the 2060s, and one family's experiences therein is both disquieting and plausible, a nation fractured by irreconcilable ideologies, populated by impoverished masses in a world seared by climate change. The threads between today and that future are his masterly drawn characters. Their humanity, savagery, and resilience provide a likeness of who we are and what we may well become.
