Drumroll please. The title of my next novel is...
A Land Overflowing
I know it sounds kind of strange without knowing more, so:
it takes place ten years or so after the honeybees go extinct (think the
not-too-distant future) and starts off by referencing two quotes.
If the bee disappeared
off the face of the earth, man would only have four years left to live.
--Albert Einstein
“I have come down to
rescue them...to bring them up...to a land flowing with milk and honey.” Exodus
3:8
Yes, there are still people left six years after Einstein
thought there could be. And yes, though the title is taken from Exodus, I did
add the prefix “Over.” You’ll see.
