I love a good dystopian novel.
I’m not sure what it says about me, deriving such interest and pleasure in authors’ interpretations of how the end of the world will transpire. I guess it would be more damning if I read these novels rooting for the apocalypse. Instead, it fascinates me to see how the surviving members try to put everything back together, fighting to overcome the numerous challenges that face them, usually without the benefit of those who helped build the original society.
The way the Clemson football team — particularly the Clemson offense — was discussed in the build-up to the 2017 season echoed a dystopian novel.
