This was an absolutely fascinating read! A novella in verse, Ceive tells a version of Noah's ark...except it's the futuristic, post-apocalyptic version. This book is dark and sad and haunting, with a tiny glimmer of hope at the end.

Incredible! A genius combination of lyricism, narrative, climate science, and history of the English language. I loved it. It’s beautiful

A novella in verse that also works as a collection of poems. And a reminder of just how dark Noah's Ark is, without reveling in the violence or degradation.
