"What has happened to the American spirit? We've gone from 'Give me liberty, or give me death!' to 'Give me a trophy, or I'll throw a tantrum.' Our colleges, which were once bulwarks of free speech, are now bastions of speech codes. Our culture, which once rewarded independence and virtue, now celebrates vice and victimhood. Parents who once taught their kids how to fend for themselves now seem content to protect their sons and daughters, as long...

Or that Courbet's famous hunting pictures are...

Cry Wolf is a perceptive allegory of the political challenges we face in post-9/11 America. The farm animals' struggle to maintain their way of life against an influx of change is a powerful commentary on the importance of balancing freedom with justice, and on how easily even the best of intentions can destroy a community too caught up with what is "fair" to do what is right.
Paul Lake's novel raises questions in the heart of every devoted citizen:...
