Notes:
"...Written as a series of first-hand accounts from the gooey, disorienting, mutant front lines of climate change, the book explores the eco-horror of everyday-life. In this book, we find a Florida filled with islands of cannibal snakes; starfish devouring their own flesh; poisonous frogs that may or may not have been weaponized by the government; and New Age cultists diving for Ponce de Leon's lost relics. Ranging freely across poetry, fiction, and anthropology, the author constructs a new nature writing in which partial untruth becomes an essential way of expressing the full horror of the slow-death of our world."--Publisher's website.
