By Abbott Karla

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. Eden Undone by Abbott Kahler recounts the search for Utopia, following European exiles on the Galápagos during the Great Depression, as their quest leads them to disaster.

What We Say: “A forgotten true story, Abbott Kahler is masterful in crafting suspense and weaving a sharp prose style, making this true story leap out of the page” — Jamie Styles

What They Say: “Evil under the sun, a baroness with a gun, and a utopia undone – by its very own inhabitants. Abbott Kahler writes with such luminosity, such psychological curiosity, that you’ll luxuriate in every page despite lurking horrors and suspicion … this is a voyage not to be missed” – Maureen Callahan

Available on Bookshop.org, Waterstones and Barnes & Noble
