A SPECULATIVE LITERATURE FOUNDATION AWARD WINNER "Beautifully written and exquisitely conceived . . . an adventure for the coming climate change apocalypse. Jack leads readers through a forbidding continent of ice and other environmental consequences with little more than a willing heart and a fierce intelligence." - Jane Rosenberg LaForge, author of The Hawkman Jack, a 200-year-old intersex street kid, knows the world didn't always look like it does now, with the Great Garbage Ocean spewing plastic and jellyfish along the shores and humanity on the brink of extinction. As he travels through the desert in search of answers, his love, Joon, by his side, he remembers things from his lives before this one. The massive tidal wave that separated him from everyone he knew. His encounter with a trickster god. A world blanketed in never-ending ice, and his desperate trek across frozen lakes, through still-standing monuments to the past, and over roaring waterfalls to reach the salt sea. In every life Jack has lived though, one thing has stayed the same: people's will to survive. "An inventive prequel to Jellyfish Dreaming . . . [with] post-apocalyptic settings that evoke more of Maurice Sendak than Mad Max, overcoming mounting cynicism about humanity to reactivate a sense of play." - Michael J. Deluca, author of The Jaguar Mask "In this strangely comforting skid into the apocalypse, D. K. McCutchen spins ice into electricity." - Kirsten Mosher, author of Plea$e Steal Me for 100 Plus Dollar-zz

D.K. McCUTCHEN teaches writing for UMass Amherst's College of Natural Sciences. Publications include THE WHALE ROAD, a Kiriyama Prize Notable Book & Pushcart nominee (creative non-fiction about sailing with whale researchers through the South Pacific to NZ), inclusion in several Fish Publishing Award anthologies for "The Glass Bitch," "April Fool & The Feministas," and "The Zen of Kakapo Poo," writings in Fourth Genre, Hayden's Ferry Review, Rosebud, Identity Theory, Lady Churchills' Rosebud Wristlett (LCRW), The Mossy Skull, and others. She currently writes hopeful, gender-bender- post-apocalyptic-speculative-fiction, including JELLYFISH DREAMING (JFD) a Leapfrog Gobal Fiction YA Prizewinner judged by Rosanne Parry (!), and Massachusetts Cultural Council Finalist. The author lives on -- and swims in -- the cleanest watershed in Massachusetts with two brilliant daughters and a flightless Kiwi that followed her home from New Zealand (so she kept him).
