Author: Cynthia Kraack
Reviews:
“Big Brother goes stark raving mad in Harvesting Ashwood, Cynthia Kraack's engrossing drama about family love versus an unfeeling bureaucracy. The author paints a dystopian future that's scary as hell. It makes Ayn Rand's Anthem and Jack London's The Iron Heel look like a day at the beach.”
-- David Housewright, Edgar Award winning author of Curse of the Jade Lily
"Cynthia Kraack's dynamic dystopian novel Harvesting Ashwood is both timely and timeless. Kraack skillfully mixes contemporary concerns like ecological depletion, 'surrogate' parenting, and economic meltdown with classic storytelling savvy. And this fast-paced tale never loses its emotional center in one woman's heart. With Anne Hartford, Kraack gives us a vivid and resilient heroine for our troubled times and beyond."
—Elizabeth Searle, author of Girl Held in Home and Celebrities in Disgrace
“Richly imaginative and generously plotted, a tale of human hope and perseverance set in a bleak but all too possible future America. Kraack’s vision of rural Minnesota under the thumb of a desperately inept bureaucracy feels a little too real— frighteningly detailed—as if she’s already been there. An absorbing, engaging nightmare.”
—Michael Kimball, author of Undone, Mouth to Mouth, and Green Girls
