There’s Going to Be Trouble
by Jen Silverman
Tilting in time between the student antiwar protests in the U.S. during the late 1960s and contemporary anti-administration demonstrations on the streets of Paris, Silverman’s examination of the nature of rebellion, the influence of family, and one’s pursuit of individuality coalesces around the stories of Minnow and Keen.
