THE MONSTER ENTERS
“Dizzying … In Mr. Davis's account, the world ends in fire, and the next time is now” —The New York Times (on Davis’ Ecology of Fear)
“Mike Davis’s The Monster at our Door...gives me everything that the news cycle doesn’t: a sense of the interconnected forces and the history that set us up for what we’re experiencing.”
—novelist Molly Dektar in Vogue
“[A] tour de force... Read Mike Davis’ new updated book before the monster rebounds and we spiral down again.”
—CounterPunch
“Provocative and controversial, as always, and a worthy addition to the literature of plague and pestilence.”
—Kirkus Reviews
In this substantially expanded edition of his earlier book, The Monster at Our Door, the renowned activist and author Mike Davis looks at the COVID-19 pandemic now sweeping the world.
