Welcome to Litsy!

Francesca, a world renowned climate activist, has secretly secured a safehaven for her young son, Pauly. Told from the POV of three young survivors left to eke out a life in relative safety, this elegiac story zooms in on a small, self-contained world that is still devastated by rising sea levels and erratic weather. Beautiful, tragic, and frankly not great for my mental health. As Francesca says, sometimes anxiety is a reasonable reaction.

I really enjoyed this book, glad I finally read it. It's definitely quite a scary story about climate change and one everyone should read. I loved all the characters, it written in a way easy to read. One of my favourite from last year.

This well written book is a warning abt climate change as seas rise + flooding threatens to overwhelm the country. 2 scientists predict the disasters pending but secure an E anglia home for their 2 children Caro + pauly who journey there to find Sally + her G/f. The subsequent 3 voice tale takes us to the brink of doom with a bleak future anticipated. Not a lot of hope for #ahopepunknovel 👇@Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage @alisiakae #booked2022

Beautifully written dystopian novel about the last survivors of the flood that drowns England. As you can imagine, a bleak read. 3 🌟

This is a very interesting take on Climate Fiction with a dystopian feel to it. It is very quiet, as I find many English books are. There is a lot to think about as you read this story, especially with the multi-POVs. I am not sure how I came across this one, but this was an enjoyable read for this genre.

Four people living out their days together after climate disasters leave them no other recourse. The depressing vision of the future that seems more and more inevitable with each passing severe weather occurrence is combined with the relationships of those stuck in a cobbled together family and all they have left behind. Striking writing uplifts a gloomy subject matter. I read this in one sitting.

Someone, somewhere recommended this book to me. Has anyone else read this one and loved it?

Bleak but beautiful. A terrifyingly plausible vision of the future. Broke my heart ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Found a copy of jessie greengrass's latest from a #littlefreelibrary on my run earlier!
