Man in the Dark (novel)

Man in the Dark is a novel by Paul Auster published in August 2008. Its topic is a dystopian scenario of the present-day United States being torn apart by a new secession and civil war after the presidential elections of 2000. (The fictional division between the secessionist and loyal states is very similar to the "Jesusland" map.) This is told within a frame narrative of an aging journalist reflecting on his family and the death of his wife.

For the 1953 movie, see Man in the Dark.

gollark: Oh. Well, I don't have Windows to test it on, due to Windows bad.
gollark: This is just a ~~picture~~ video with a notification in it.
