Product details
This literary art print captures American War, Omar El Akkad's searing dystopian vision of a fractured United States. Set against the backdrop of a second civil war in the 2070s, the poster evokes the stark landscape of a climate-ravaged America and follows Sarat Chestnut's journey from childhood to hardened survivor. A powerful addition to a study, home library, or gallery wall — ideal for students, book club members, and readers drawn to contemporary dystopian fiction that challenges our assumptions about war and humanity.
The Modern edition of American War is bold, expressive bookish wall art — a contemporary take on classic literature in rich graphic colour. A statement piece for readers who want their favourite books to anchor a room.
✦ Three exclusive colour variations to choose from (Style X, Y, Z)
