Jordan O'Donnell’s debut novel strikes the heart of the American public. This timely allegory and poignant social critique tells the story of Clarendon Zoo and the dogmatic wolf and sheep tribes that trigger its downfall.
When the mysterious zookeeper of Clarendon Zoo grants his animals the freedom to govern themselves, they create a new land founded upon life, liberty, and happiness for all animals. Though the land seems to function well, each species soon realizes they have different visions for governing the zoo. With the help of Eagle and Owl’s propaganda, the traditional wolves and the progressive sheep quickly emerge as leaders. The two species fight to spread their contradictory visions, pitting the animals against one another, and inadvertently throw the zoo into chaos. Screeching pigeons flood the sky as animals proclaim their opinions; fact becomes fiction, fiction becomes fact, truth becomes impossible to discern. The wolves and sheep slowly destroy the very land they claim to lead.
Timely, convicting, wickedly creative, Zoon Garden is the warning our fiercely divided nation needs to hear. It will leave you asking: What is the truth? Who is to blame? What is the world’s future?
