P&P Live!: Cli-fi, Literature, and Activism with Jenny Offill This event is presented in partnership with the Chesapeake Climate Action Network. New York Times-bestselling author Jenny Offill will discuss her novel Weather with the Chesapeake Climate Action Network, an anxious and funny novel that follows a librarian who is gradually awakened to the climate crisis and tries to balance that with her daily life. As a Guardian reporter put it, “At its core, the story asks: what happens after we start to pay attention?” This event will contain a discussion of both the novel and the answer to that question.
Offill will discuss how literature and activism are connected with Denise Robbins, Communications Director for the Chesapeake Climate Action Network, including how this story resonates in the time of the coronavirus pandemic. |
