Anthony Caplan presents Alias Tomorrow

Description

Anthony Caplan visits Gibson's Bookstore to share his new literary science fiction novel, Alias Tomorrow. Alias Tomorrow is a literary, science fiction hybrid exploring family, identity, and what it means to be human, no matter what planet you live on. William Morrow is a writer grappling with a changing world and a family drifting apart. His main character, Antioch, battles an oppressive surveillance regime in an effort to get back to Earth from the OneWorld colony on Mars. Alias Tomorrow is at once a suspenseful exploration of a society where advanced technology has blurred the lines between reality and illusion, and a character-driven, unflinchingly honest expose of the inner lives of an American family. As Morrow grapples with his identity and relationships with his wife and adult children, his protagonist Antioch navigates a society of mind control and stratification to preserve any hope of ever returning home. Alias Tomorrow explores the complexities of family dynamics and the search for meaning in a present that often feels fragmented and isolating. It contains within it the picture of an interplanetary future where personal victories are hard-won against a system designed to crush dissent. Anthony Caplan is the author of literary and science fiction with more than 17,000 books in the hands of readers. He has worked as a journalist and a teacher and is currently a state representative in the New Hampshire legislature representing the towns of Henniker, Bradford and Warner.
