A book abort war , tribalism and intergenerational trauma. Grief. loss and the damage we are doing to our planet. Also a stark reminder of how brutal and excruciating teenaghood can be.
This book is beautifully and poetically written. As someone who carers deeply about what is happening about the planet but who finds the subject of climate change quite impenetrable at times this story is a useful entry point into to thinking about these important issues as it goes beyond bare statistics and gives nature a voice.
