Glenn Beck’s New Novel: ‘The Overton Window’
Will Bunch has the name of Glenn Beck’s upcoming adult novel (he’s already written a Christmas story for children) to be released in June. The news comes in Bunch’s extremely entertaining report on a Beck speech and rally in Orlando. The book, explains Bunch, will be “‘a story of America in a time much like today where the people are confused,’ with a government in crisis and the rise of a citizens’ group called the Founders Keepers, which ‘leads to a battle and a civil war, and life is upside-down planetwide.’”
On first blush it sounds like “Atlas Shrugged” with a bit more violence, and with 9-12 Tea Partiers taking the place of underground intellectuals. And it will also ruin for all time a term political scientists have enjoyed and Beck recently discovered. (In that clip, an early title for the book is “We Are Americans: The Overton Window.”)
