by David Moles

To Read

There's a lot packed into David Moles's dense, brilliant alternative history novella Seven Cities of Gold: Mayan mythology, New World American folklore, a re-imagining of Conrad's Heart of Darkness (and Coppola's Apocalypse Now),
a meditation on the disasters of the last decade—Iraq and Katrina—as
well as the numerous geopolitical upheavals of many decades before.
There's also a complete re-imagining of religion as it is currently
perceived by Western audiences: here Islam and Buddhism are the
religions of the power elite while Christianity occupies a literal and
figurative backwater.
