Initially, Into the Forest was a word-of-mouth favorite of booksellers. Soon greater publishing houses were realizing Jean Hegland's debut novel and providing it rave reviews. Powerful and troubling, Into the Forest offers images of an all-too-believable future. As America collapses in the chaos of conflict, pollution, and individual bankruptcy, two sisters pool their resources to endure by itself in the hills above SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA. Although dwindling food and increasing isolation threaten them, they soon find a more immediate danger standing at their door. When a young man gets there, his companionship offers tantalizing fulfillment, but his love threatens to split the sisters. Hegland's provocative work is similar to George Orwell's 1984 and Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Story. It infuses a tale of survival with startling insights into a woman's search for strength.
