Aprašymas

Winner of the Fall 2024 Black River Chapbook Competition

It's a beautiful September day in Seattle, but Tiny isn't happy. Lung damage recently ended her dream career as a wildlands firefighter, and she's grieving person she loved most, her grandmother. Add to that Tiny's festering anger over climate change, and the pushy neighbor who's filed a complaint about the wind turbine on Tiny's roof, and it's no wonder she sometimes wants to punch something.

Things take a turn when a city employee arrives at Tiny's doorstep with an unexpected proposal: become a beta-tester for a program designed to pull carbon from the atmosphere, counteracting global warming. Despite her skepticism, Tiny agrees. What ensues is stranger and more wondrous than she could have imagined--but when the city decides to abruptly end the program, Tiny must decide if she will follow orders, or if she will resist and follow her heart. Woman, Wolf, Carbon Capture is an exuberant, funny, and smart tale about human shortcomings and hopes around climate change.
