Rezensionen

"There is so much to like in this book that it seems almost arbitrary to talk about one thing in particular, yet I can't help myself. The decision to focus on a single character (the aptly named Hope) who moves through time and life-stages brings out brilliantly some of the personal challenges in living with climate change . . . . This book will not 'save the world,' for nothing can, and anyway it is us, not the world that most needs saving. What we can and should hope for is that this book makes us more like Hope."
Dale Jamieson, New York University
