It's 1939, the USA is on the eve of leaving its sleepy childhood behind forever, and the world's last renaissance man has dragged his dissipated self back home to confront the tinpot gods who would rise to power by giving farmers alternating current. "Hawkins has written a big story for a big era, a comic requiem for the lost potential of the American Century."
