The Party Is Here
The Party Is Here | Georgina Beaty
2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
A memorable, edgy debut exploring the climate crisis and young women on the verge of transformation These hip, thoroughly modern stories introduce us to young women grappling with the climate crisis and trying to make decisions that will affect the rest of their lives. Two admirers of Anne Carson decide the path to liberation is to ?become men? and embark on a mythic journey; a graduate student reports on the progressively unhinged unravelling of her climate change research project; a park ranger goes to extreme lengths to save his beloved tortoises; a woman freezes her eggs and then finds she can get glimpses into each potential life. As we travel with our protagonists to places at once familiar and thrillingly strange, Georgina Beaty fearlessly probes the ambitions and confusions of her generation. Wholly unexpected yet wildly entertaining, The Party Is Here daringly announces the arrival of a writer who brings explosive energy and an unforgettable flair all her own.

5🌟A fantastic, unique and relevant collection of stories! I was completely blown away by this collection! Beaty has a way of gripping the reader and pulling them under. Darkly funny, these stories are here and now. I was wholly engaged as I read these vidid female characters and watched them navigate life amongst the consequences of our ever changing environment. Highly reccomend this one! #canlit #bookreview #bookblogger #bookstagram
