Acerca de esta escucha

All City is more than a novel, it's a foreshadowing of a world to come.

In a near-future New York City ravaged by climate change and economic inequality, a superstorm hits, leaving behind only those who had nowhere else to go and no way to get out. Among those who remain are 24-year-old Makayla, who works in the city's most ubiquitous convenience store chain, and Jesse, an 18-year-old, genderqueer anarchist living in an abandoned IRT station in the Bronx. In the aftermath of the storm, Jesse joins Makayla's group of remainders in an abandoned luxury condo building, carving out a small sanctuary in the midst of a destroyed city.

Meanwhile, mysterious, colorful murals begin to appear throughout NYC, bringing hope to the forsaken and left-behind. But the storm's castaways aren't the only ones who find beauty in the art: the media, having long abandoned the supposedly hopeless metropolis, "discovers" the emergence of the murals. When one appears on Makayla and Jesse's repurposed luxury condo, it is only a matter of time before the landlord class comes back to claim the city for themselves.

I absolutely LOVED the perfection of the narrators. The idea of the story was awesome & different. I enjoyed how different every main character is one to another. I didn't like the way each character developed.
But the way this Narrators put the right feeling on the rights places makes these book a very good one. I personally don't think I would have finished it if I was reading it. To sum this up- it was very good to listen.

Flawless narration!

I really liked the book i loved having the different voices for each character and the characters are likeable.

very good read

This story pulls no punches when examining the effects of climate change that are already upon us. It takes a hard look at the most vulnerable populations and at the absurdity of the wealth divide. Not a lightweight read but a necessary one.

Dark. Gripping. Real.

Thoroughly depressing but great listen. The view of a post climate decimated city is outstanding. Admittedly, it took a bit of time for me to figure out the vernacular. The characters are all interesting on several levels.

Be warned: As in real life, everything does not have a happy ending.

Worth The Misery

I love a story that makes you feel and this does that. It's very honest to the reality if the world Especially if the Trump era doesn't end soon. That being said, you won't find happy endings here. It's kind of like black mirror, but less sci-fi. its not your world, but your constantly aware of how easily it could be and that makes it kind of scary. Sometimes we need to get scared to act though.

Terribly Real

Interesting

Book makes you reflect on today’s day and age. I loved seeing the contrast between haves and have nots during a natural disaster; however, book started so good and made me hope for a crazy ride but unfortunately the story started dying so slowly that I couldn’t wait for it to end.

Performance pulled it off

I could definitely see this type of situation becoming more common as we head towards societal collapse. Thanks to capitalism, it's likely nearer than we like to imagine.

realistic hypothetical perspective
