Kristin’s Reviews > American War > Status Update

I'm struggling with the fact that this book is set in the south during a civil war and there's really no discussion of the USA's problematic history with race. I know the author isn't trying to make points about race in this novel...but the absence of any discussion at all about race is disconcerting. I find it hard to believe that by 2075 we will have changed so much that race will be a non-issue in the south.
