Escape Into the Future is written by John Stroup and published by Baylor University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 193279252X (ISBN 10) and 9781932792522 (ISBN 13).
Escape into the Future analyzes the power of pessimism, showing links between present-day religious pessimism and the nihilism of popular culture. Stroup and Shuck rummage through an interesting and eclectic body of pop culture--from Fight Club to X-Files to the Left Behind series--pointing out the presence of pessimistic themes throughout. This volume identifies and illuminates the religious language used in these works to articulate America's need to escape from its present cultural path and, ultimately, provide hope that it might do so.
