Are-4: A True Story of How We Got to Now

More about the book

The epic novel, Are-4, A True Story of How We Got to Now, chronicles four main characters and their growing disappointment in "the way things are". Over the span of forty years, the characters' individual personalities are revealed as they confront and discuss the issues of the day and ponder how to better them. The scheme they develop involves the invention of a device to send one of the characters to a well-known historical event where his minuscule change to a minor element creates tremendous changes going forward. All four characters then re-live their lives in a new, vastly different reality until, alas, that "better world" is cruelly transformed into our current reality by three men - well known to us all - who stumble upon the breakthrough and realize its incredible power.
