Description:

Stories from an atlas of trouble: Finding hope in poetry and art from the edge of the climate crisis.

Come for a night of stories from the new anthology, Harvest Moon: Poems and Stories from the Edge of the Climate Crisis. The book spans 24 countries and 11 world languages, including Zapotec, Swahili, and Filipino.

The pieces in this collection counter tired stories of climate doom and gloom. Brimming with as much love and triumph as loss and grief, Harvest Moon makes the crisis legible for those of us most vulnerable to its effects.

“You could make an atlas of trouble out of this book, …out of the instability of what we counted on for our stability and our sustenance in body and spirit and hope... We will need stories more than ever.”

— from the Afterword to Harvest Moon by Rebecca Solnit
