One of LitHub’s "365 Books to Start Your Climate Change Library"“Fiction about ecological disaster tends to be written in a tragic key. Boyle, by contrast, favors the darkly comic." –Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction Originally published in 2000, T. C. Boyle’s prescient novel about global warming and ecological collapseIt is the year 2025. Global warming is a reality. The biosphere has collapsed and most mammals—not to mention fish, birds, and frogs—are extinct. Tyrone Tierwater is eking out a bleak living in southern California, managing a pop star's private menagerie that "only a mother could love"—scruffy hyenas, jackals, warthogs, and three down-at-the-mouth lions. It wasn't always like this for Ty. Once he was a passionate environmentalist, so committed to saving the earth that he became an eco-terrorist and, ultimately, a convicted felon. as a member of the radical group Earth Forever!, he unwittingly endangered both his daughter Sierra and his wife Andrea. Now, just when he's trying to survive in a world torn by obdurate storms and winnowing drought, Andrea comes back into his life. T. C. Boyle's eighth novel blends idealism and satire in a story that addresses the ultimate questions of human love and the survival of the species. | A Friend of the Earth by T. c.
