Land of the Setting Sun

by Ariel Weinmann-Rubino

In 2090, the sovereign Republic of Oregon is home to Indian car companies, the Oregon Defense Force, environmentally friendly skinheads, Olympic greatness, political dynasties, Japanese rabbis, and a patriotic duty to mind one's own business. In this, his first novela, Ariel Jonathan Weinmann traces the quirks and characters that make up the Oregon and Portland of today to their logical conclusions.
