🎉NEW RELEASE🎉 🐉RATING: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Lark Ascending, by Silas House, is an eco-apocalyptic cautionary tale in which the reader vividly experiences the loss, fear, and motivation of a refugee. Lark grows up in a time of upheaval. Fires ravage the United States and fundamentalists (“Fundies”) have taken control of the country. At age 20, he is forced to flee across the ocean to Ireland, the last country known to accept refugees. House succeeds in crafting a chilling tale because the story feels terribly plausible. Both in the United States and across the globe, we are witnessing the destruction of greater and more devastating wildfires. We are warned that rising sea levels will force a mass migration inland. At the same time, far-right political groups are gaining ground in the U.S. and Europe. As I write this, the Sweden Democrats, a party with Nazi origins, has gained a significant foothold in Sweden’s government, and Italy is about to elect their most right-wing leader since Mussolini. Despite the horrors Lark faces on his journey, he retains a determination to keep going. And this drive to keep going and stay alive provides the heart of the novel. The author repeatedly returns to themes of hope, trust, companionship, and beauty in even the worst situations. Lark Ascending is not a subtle book. It is both disturbing and beautiful. Silas House has written a tightly crafted vision of the worst our world could become. This is the kind of book that makes you feel the big emotions, a book that sticks in your head long after the final page. It’s not a book I enjoyed, but it is a book that I loved. ❓QOTD: Do you like books that make you uncomfortable?
