When Camille moved with her husband and daughter to Fort Collins, Colorado, in 2013, the community held restrictions about what residents could and could not plant in their gardens. In resistance to the policies that limited the possibility and wonder that grows from the earth, Camille employs the various plants, herbs, vegetables, and flowers she grows in her garden as a metaphor for how homogeneity threatens the future of our planet, and why cultivating diverse and intersectional language in our national discourse about the environment is the best means of protecting it. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR on a bookplate on the half title page.
Simon and Schuster, 2024. Paperback with French flaps and deckled edges, 325 pp.
