pH: A Novel. Nancy Lord

Аннотация:

The manuscript for this book was just one of the top five finalists for the 2015 Siskiyou Prize for New Environmental Literature. Although this novel is imaginative and humorous, the science supporting it is authentic. pH is cutting edge Cli-Fi (named hottest reading trend by Sierra Magazine 2014) and will interest anyone who loves the nature. It will also appeal to fans of science art or art based in science and the connections among science, art, and culturally‐defined beliefs are major themes. The book will include an author Q&A and reading group discussion questions. Like JIMMY BLUEFEATHER, this novel is full of quirky characters and their relationships and beautifully crafted, breathtaking descriptions of nature. Nancy is passionate about place, history, and the natural environment. She is actively engaged in conservation and community-building causes across the United States. She recently completed ten years as a trustee of the Alaska Conservation Foundation.
