Description
This novel is an urgent, crushing observation of adaptation and exclusion amidst preparation to settle Antarctica as climate destruction starts to bite. New Zealand in 2048, gateway to the melting continent, is thrust into the centre of the climate crises. Vai Shuster, the Advocate of a tiny, broken island, must find a place for her community in a world that's not sure it needs the poor.Tags
Member Reviews
Yet another good example of New Zealand cli-fi, sometimes slightly reminiscent of Kim Stanley Robinson's prose and ideas. Recommended reading for all those interested in literary insights on the many effects and ramifications of anthropogenic global warming.
