Johnny Townsend 
Brace for Impact [EPUB ebook] 

Destek

As Craig and Toby struggle to keep their faltering marriage alive, the climate crisis intrudes, part of a threesome in their relationship.

Craig wants to take drastic action but Toby just wants to live his life as best he can before climate breakdown escalates.

‘You fight for your life by any means necessary, ‘ Craig insists. ‘If someone breaks into your house, you pull out a baseball bat or a gun. When there’s a mass shooting, you run, hide, or fight back.’

But when it involves global warming? And fossil fuel industries buying politicians who protect carbon emissions at the cost of human lives?

Craig wonders if a letter to the editor is effective. If blocking traffic at a rally once or twice a year is enough.

Toby threatens to leave him if does anything stupid. And to report him to the authorities.

But Craig feels he’ll need to commit violence one way or another, either by condoning the status quo or by doing whatever he can to fight those who keep destabilizing the climate. So he joins a group of eco activists whose efforts are far more extreme than even he had expected.

Will Craig survive the violent police crackdown on protesters?

Will his relationship with Toby survive the additional stress of betrayal?

And will either of them survive the new wildfire that’s just started at the edge of town?

Yazar hakkında

A climate crisis immigrant who relocated from New Orleans to Seattle in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Johnny Townsend wrote the first account of the Up Stairs Lounge fire, an attack on a French Quarter gay bar which killed 32 people in 1973. He was an associate producer for the documentary Upstairs Inferno, for the sci-fi film Time Helmet, and for the deaf gay short Flirting, with Possibilities. His books include Please Evacuate, Racism by Proxy, and Wake Up and Smell the Missionaries. His novel, Orgy at the STD Clinic, set entirely on public transit, tells the story of an isolated man finding connection in the midst of political extremism, climate upheaval, and anti-maskers during the pandemic.
