De Mandibles

The book's portrayal of a declining economy feels very plausible yet unsettling. I'm curious whether the author based it on current trends or imagined a worst-case scenario.

Their struggles felt real and personal, which made the societal collapse even more impactful. How did others relate to their resilience or despair?

The economic details felt accessible but authentic. I wonder if there was a particular research process or advisor involved to keep it credible.
