Abbott Kahler is the author of Eden Undone: A True Story of Sex, Murder, and Utopia at the Dawn of World War II (Crown).
The book is the incredible true story of Smithsonian scientists who, at the height of the Great Depression, stumbled upon a group of European exiles living in their own “civilization” in the Galapegos.
What was meant to be utopia, the scientists discovered, had turned to gothic chaos… and then some.
“There’s a dash of Conrad. A bit of Hitchcock. Notes of Melville, Darwin, and Robinson Crusoe—and certainly more than a whiff of Lord of the Flies. But really, Eden Undone is completely its own thing. Bizarre, mesmerizing, and compellingly tragic.” – Hampton Sides
Abbott Kahler, formerly writing as Karen Abbott, is the New York Times bestselling author of Sin in the Second City; American Rose; Liar, Temptress, Soldier, Spy; and The Ghosts of Eden Park.
A native of Philadelphia, she lives in New York City and in Greenport, New York.
The Smokes’ debut EP is Lostville, recorded at the Zebra Ranch studio in Coldwater, MS.
