A CHILDREN'S BIBLE.

Edition: First edition stated.

New York: W. W. Norton & Company, (2020) dj. Hardcover first edition - A novel which begins as a sardonic teen comedy: A group of families have rented an old mansion together for the summer. The adults are all embarrassing, drunken bores, and their children, who have free run of the house, want nothing to do with them - but then it transforms to a modern-day tale of climate change which creates a shattering vision of our apocalyptic future. "Millet writes brilliantly about everything politics, physics, mermaids and shes one of the leading writers of environmental fiction. [She] addresses the existential crisis of climate change with a technical understanding of the science and a humane understanding of the heart. Shes also ferociously witty. That rare combination has made her stories about species extinction and global warming profound and weirdly amusing." (Ron Charles, Washington Post) Finalist for the National Book Award. 234 pp. A variant edition with first edition stated, but no number line, bound in gray cloth and measuring 8 3/4 inches tall, 5 3/4 inches wide.
