The Will’ven’t Bin by Alan M. Clark

Review Posted Online: October 9, 2025 — My Rating: 5-Stars This review was posted to Goodreads, and Reedsy/Discovery, The Will'ven't Bin tells the story of twelve-year-old Martin growing up in Tennessee in 1933. Martin's father, whom he adored, died far too soon from polio. The two shared an adventurous bond that led them to explore their natural surroundings—the forest, the streams, the caves.

Right off the bat, it’s important to emphasize that there is no formal antifa “organization” to speak of. The entity, to the extent that it exists, is made up of loosely affiliated anti-fascist activists.

That means anyone who isn't MAGA is at risk of being summarily killed.
