About this listen

NAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2021 BY THE NEW YORKER AND PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

[Warmth] is lyrical and erudite, engaging with science, activism, and philosophy . . . [Sherrell] captures the complicated correspondence between hope and doubt, faith and despair—the pendulum of emotional states that defines our attitude toward the future.The New Yorker

“Beautifully rendered and bracingly honest.” —Jenny Odell, author of How to Do Nothing

From a millennial climate activist, an exploration of how young people live in the shadow of catastrophe

Warmth is a new kind of book about climate change: not what it is or how we solve it, but how it feels to imagine a future—and a family—under its weight. In a fiercely personal account written from inside the climate movement, Sherrell lays bare how the crisis is transforming our relationships to time, to hope, and to each other. At once a memoir, a love letter, and an electric work of criticism, Warmth goes to the heart of the defining question of our time: how do we go on in a world that may not?

Exquisitely elegant portrayal of our impact on the planet, our society, our life, our home: in this book our choices in the ‘bubble’ are laid bare. Thank you Daniel Sherrell for doing the work to help us better understand the stakes at play.

Warmth - an act of laying bare the threats and hopes for our planet.
