**A cataclysmic storm tests the foundation of a young couple's marriage and the fabric of their Vermont community in this penetrating debut novel.**
**"Frightening, fascinating, all too possible." —Paula Treick DeBoard, author of** ***The Drowning Girls***
Ash and Pia move from hipster Brooklyn to rustic Vermont in search of a more authentic life. But just months after settling in, the forecast of a superstorm disrupts their dream. Fear of an impending disaster splits their tight-knit community and exposes the cracks in their marriage. Where Isole was once a place of old farm families, rednecks and transplants, it now divides into paranoid preppers, religious fanatics and government tools, each at odds about what course to take.
*We Are Unprepared* is an emotional journey, a terrifying glimpse into the human costs of our changing earth and, ultimately, a cautionary tale of survival and the human spirit.
