Eric Puchner is the author of "Dream State."

Eric Puchner’s second novel, Dream State, is a character driven story that spans multiple generations, beginning with the wedding of Cece and Garrett.

The epic follows the course of their lives, but also imagines a not so distant future in which climate change directly affects the American landscape as we know it.
