BLOODBATH NATION is about the Epidemic that is tearing apart the fabricof American society.An Epidemic caused - not by Covid - but by Guns. Among its victims are men, women, teenagers, children, and even babies. Themassacres have taken place in churches, schools, movie theatres, and at rockconcerts. Auster establishes how America's love affair with guns goes all theway back to the arrival of the first British settlers - guns in hand - who usedthese guns to eradicate the Native Americans who occupied the country. Thishistory of carnage continues to this day. Guns have become one of the issues dividing America today, but Austerdoesn't take sides. The book is a plea for both sides to find a way of avoidingmore death and grief. Accompanying Auster's text is a series of photographsof the locations of these mass killings. There are no bodies - only the emptyspaces which stand as mute memorials to the lives that have been lost.
