On today’s show, we welcome two Oregon-based writers — Suzy Vitello and Cai Emmons — who have published recent novels, speculative fiction, focused on climate change, its effects on the environment and those of us living under these conditions. Suzy’s book FAUTLAND from Portland’s Ooligan Press, and Cai’s book SINKING ISLANDS from Red Hen Press, while not sparing us the devastation caused by climate change, have a common theme of resilience in the face of disaster, and our need for human connection no matter the circumstances.
