The Unraveling

The Unraveling is a documentary-style novel tracing the collapse of the world we built — told through the people living inside it. From a Japanese elder care worker watching her country quietly empty out, to a Kansas farmer selling land her family worked for generations, to a Nigerian scientist documenting contamination no one wants to see, the book follows ordinary lives caught in systems that were already failing before the crisis arrived. The data is real. Only the names are fiction.
