Klappentext zu „The People Are Going to Rise Like the Waters Upon Your Shore “
Sexton grapples with the Trump campaign from the perspective of the crowds reveling in the candidate s presence and message. It is a useful vantage point given the increasingly blatant bigotry in the months since the election. The Washington PostThe People Are Going to Rise Like the Waters Upon Your Shore is a firsthand account of the events that shaped the 2016 presidential election and the cultural forces that powered Donald Trump into the White House. Includes an all new afterword that details the first year of the Trump presidency.
With a novelist s flair for the dramatic scene and evocative detail, Sexton expertly marries the quotidian tedium of the campaign trail (so many hotel room beers) and the outlandish circumstances of this particular election season with his astute observations about our polarized national condition.

This is the post campaign book I was waiting for. Essential reading for understanding this country now and going forward. Alexander Chee, author of The Queen of the Night
