Fiction: The Energy Caper, or Nixon in the Sky with Diamonds
William Scott Morrison’s debut novel is a picaresque tale that takes place in a world where the Kennedys and Martin Luther King were not killed and there was no Vietnam war. In this better universe, four idealistic boomers come of age and find themselves helping a “good” Richard Nixon as he fights to make America energy independent by legalizing the cultivation of what Thomas Jefferson called “America’s most valuable crop.”
