Unfurled

“A republic, if you can keep it.” Those were Benjamin Franklin’s words following the Constitutional Convention of 1787, when asked what system of government the new America would follow. Unfurled is a futuristic novel which takes place in the United States following the collapse of the federal government. After decades of political stagnation, division among Americans, and the disconnect between the governed and those elected, America is forced to rebuild itself in the wake of total capitulation. Global security and the history of humans are at stake as a group of friends fights against systemic racism kept in place by white supremacy, striving to build a republic that is truly by and for all people. Unfurled causes readers to pause and consider the path to capitulation America seems to be on today. Authoritarianism is at America's doorstep while many choose to look away, whistling past American inequities. So, can we keep our republic? The answer is up to you. Author - Daniel P Aude.
