Michael Sandels’s unique, hilarious, novella The End of the Word as We Know It is the epic story of humanity's journey from 1960 through 2020, and how we arrived at where we are now. In a work that took 34 years to write, Sandels inventively explains it all. Who or what is responsible for Earth’s problems? This fun, surreal comedy attempts to provide the answer to this question.
