Description

In 'Subprimes', Karl Taro Greenfield presents a dystopian vision of America where the economic collapse has led to widespread poverty and the rise of a new class of people known as 'subprimes'. These individuals, unable to secure stable housing or employment, wander the country in search of opportunity. The novel explores themes of economic inequality, societal collapse, and the resilience of the human spirit.
