Floodmarkers by Nic Brown

This week, we are giving away a copy of Floodmarkers by Nic Brown. Lystra, North Carolina: a fictional town full of very real people who survive the attack of Hurricane Hugo and then find their bearings in the aftermath—often in wild and hilarious ways.

Counterpoint publishes fiction, literature, and poetry in addition to nonfiction, including history, memoir, biography, and nature. Soft Skull publishes contemporary fiction, as well as graphic novels, and nonfiction, including current affairs, counterculture, and politics. Sierra Club Books publishes environmental books.

    Considering I live in Charleston and all I ever hear about is Hurricane Hugo during hurricane season, reading something fun and different in regards to the storm will be a welcome change.

    As a survivor of a tornado in Redwood City, California, survivors of a hurricane would be even more exciting. Love that Honda on the front cover.
