Journal Entry 1 by wingGoryDetailswing from Nashua, New Hampshire USA on Friday, May 3, 2019
I got this hardcover from this Little Free Library on Richards Rd in Reading MA while dropping off some books of my own. (It inspired a 2015 mini-series.)

The concept: it's 1962 in America, in a world where the Axis powers won WWII, and things are very different... But there's a popular new novel which describes a world in which the Allies won the war, and it helps inspire people to seek out ways to combat the current regime.

I admit that I didn't get into the book, despite the intriguing premise; perhaps someone else will enjoy it!

[There's a TV Tropes page on the novel and the mini-series, with some entertaining tidbits. And this xkcd comic riffs on the alternate-history-within-alternate-history concept from the novel.]
