Insurrection

By Eduardo Lerro

Taut, propulsive, and uniquely relevant to our contemporary political moment, Insurrection begins in tense, battle-ready medias res and from there jumps back and forth from today to several pivotal moments in the past to unfold what happens when Reverend Engel, a Christian nationalist demagogue, seizes de facto control of the government and threatens to round up and exterminate all the queer people left in the country. When they discover the plot, Walter, Sarah, and Jimmy, three rebellious insiders with more cunning and determination than anyone dared predict, decide they will do whatever it takes to stop him. Four years later, when Engel's threats are finally made real and the true scope and terror of his fanatical vision are revealed, no one is prepared for the consequences. Part political thriller, part cautionary tale, Insurrection shows us what can happen when government is weaponized against a community that refuses to go quietly.
