Horror's Greatest Hits
Pam asked this question about The New Wilderness:
I just discovered the title. Is it overall heavy? As an environmentalist, I am intrigued by the author using climate change as the back bone. However, I'm dismayed that it might be really heavy. Not that the subject isn't- was hoping it was more "inviting" (as in this is why we need to change our ways). I have added it to my list to read...
Mahina Nightsage It is heavy in the way that a book about the destruction of our wild spaces and the need to protect this one last space is heavy. If you love the Eart…moreIt is heavy in the way that a book about the destruction of our wild spaces and the need to protect this one last space is heavy. If you love the Earth and feel acute pain over what we are losing, that is the subtext of this novel. I did not, however, find it too heavy to read. The story focuses on the people who are trying to make it in the New Wilderness and is very much driven by the stories and interactions of the people, particularly one mother and child. I encourage you to read it!(less)
