Book Overview

by Madeleine Jubilee Saito (Author)

"A singular gift. At once gentle and piercing, spare and profound, [Saito's] artistry breaks open hearts, releasing rivers of love for what is--and grief for what is already lost." -- NAOMI KLEIN, New York Times bestselling author of Doppelganger

In her debut collection of comics, artist and climate activist Madeleine Jubilee Saito offers a quietly radical message of hope.

Framed as a letter in response to a loved one's pain, this series of ethereal vignettes takes readers on a journey from seemingly inescapable isolation and despair, through grief and rage, toward the hope of community and connection.

Drawing on her faith as well as the tradition of climate justice, Saito reminds readers that if we're going to challenge fossil fuel capitalism, we must first imagine what lies beyond it: The beauty and joy of a healed world.
