Warmth: Coming of Age at the End of Our World

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

“Strikingly perceptive.” —Jenny Offill, author of Weather

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

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?
