How do we find a sense of home and rootedness in a time of unprecedented upheaval? What happens when the seasons and rhythms in which we have built our lives go off-kilter? Climate change is now reaching into the familiar, posits Madeline Ostrander, threatening our basic safety and forcing us to reexamine who we are and how we live. Along with lyrical essays on the strengths we need in an era of crisis, Ostrander offers vivid accounts of people fighting to protect places they love from environmental hazards.
