The rain in Aloisville is never-ending, and no one can remember when it started. There's not much they can remember. With every drop that hits their skin, a bit of memory is washed away. Stay too long in the wet, and you'll lose everything you used to be. By the time Laverne begins keeping a journal, the small town she calls home has been irreparably changed. Every drop of water is dangerous, from leaky faucets to the near-constant rainfall, and a careless trip outside can mean a life down the drain.

Decir no no basta revela, entre otras cosas, que la desorientación que sentimos nos la han provocado deliberadamente. Que por todo el mundo, para generar una crisis tras otra, se están utilizando tácticas de shock diseñadas para forzar políticas que van a arruinar a la gente, el medio ambiente, la economía y nuestra seguridad. Que el extremismo no es un hecho aberrante, sino un cóctel tóxico de nuestros tiempos. Naomi Klein nos enseña cómo podemos romper el hechizo y conseguir el mundo que necesitamos. No dejemos que se salgan con la suya.
