The Turner Diaries was written under the pseudonym of Andrew MacDonald by William Pierce, a noted white supremecist. Pierce died of old age in West Virginia in 2002, his dream of race-war and a purely Christian America unfulfilled. Yet.

When police arrested Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, they found a copy of Pierce's novel in his getaway car. A fictional blueprint for the overthrow of the U.S. goverenment, The Turner Diaries has inspired survivalists, militias, and Klansmen across the country. In Pierce's literary nightmare, liberals, Jews, blacks, Hispanics, and anyone not white and Christian are the enemy. A widespread network of "patriotic" Americans wage a guerrilla war to eliminate the "Zionist yoke", and purge America of the the non-European, non-Christian horde who pollute its shores.

And after I first read this fantasy, I wondered: If Pierce's vision came true, what would it mean for the rest of us?

My novel, Burning Books on Fenwick Street, was written as a possible sequel to Pierce's bleak tale, a story of what might happen to his Aryan Utopia if ordinary people fought back against his apocalyptic vision of America.
