Summary:
It seems like people are constantly talking about the end of the world, doesn’t it? Y2K, the Mayan Apocalypse, Blood Moon Prophecies, nuclear war, killer robots, you name it. In Apocalypse Any Day time Today, journalist Tea Krulos moves the country to try to puzzle out America’s obsession with the end of days. Along the way he fits doomsday preppers-people who stockpile materials and learn success skills-as well as spiritual prognosticators and environment scientists. He camps out with the Zombie Squad (who use a zombie apocalypse like a survival metaphor); trips the Survival Condominiums, a luxurious bunker built in a vintage Atlas missile silo; and attends Wasteland Weekend, where people party just like the globe has already ended. Frightening and funny, the tips Krulos explores range between ridiculously outlandish to alarmingly near and present problems.
