{"product_id":"survival-house-wendell-mayo-9781622881895","title":"Survival House","description":"Often humorous, always resonant, the ten stories in \u003ci\u003eSurvival House\u003c\/i\u003e not only look back to the collective mind of doom in the atomic age of the 1950s and 1960s, but also address its legacy in our time--the emergence of new nuclear powers, polarizing politics, and the ever-tightening grip of corporations. In contemporary stories, such as \"Doom Town,\" a festival annually celebrates the survival of the human race by conducting riotous air raids. In \"The Trans-Siberian Railway Comes to Whitehouse,\" a bar owner desperately clings to a new all-things-Russian theme to save himself from financial ruin. Other stories, set in the 1960s, recast the Cuban Missile Crisis, Kennedy assassination, and Space Race in personal histories of the human heart that remind us what it takes to endure--both then, and now.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wendell Mayo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1622881893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781622881895\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen F.
