Aprašymas

Things fall apart in The Swamp, a funny new novel by Joe Flood that mocks the city that America has come to hate - Washington, DC.

After a drone crashes into the White House, Fox News screams, "How can we keep the President safe?"

A crackpot idea from a cynical correspondent - let's move Washington out of Washington - becomes an unstoppable political movement. Republicans and Democrats in Washington face off against a red state rebellion in a battle for the nation's capital. Can they contain this popular uprising or will it swamp them all?

From scheming bureaucrats to despairing millennials, The Swamp is a love letter to the nation's capital - and a wish for its destruction - packaged together in a biting satire reminiscent of Christopher Buckley and VEEP.

An award-winning writer and photographer from Washington, DC, Joe Flood knows the swamp. He's lived and worked in the city for twenty years. Flood portrays the city beyond the monuments and has been published in The Washington Post, City Paper and elsewhere.
