\u201cDougald Hine\u2019s brilliant book demands we stare into the abyss and rethink our securest certainties about what is actually going on in the climate crisis. It\u2019s lucidly unsettling and yet in the end empowering. There is something we can do, and it starts with where we look, how we see and what we choose to change.\u201d
\n\u2014 BRIAN ENO<\/p>\n

\u201cA must-read for all those activists feeling lost, desperate and perhaps subject to \u2018press-on-itis\u2019. Let\u2019s find our curiosity together, hold each other as we navigate the turbulence and face our lack of roadmap. Reading this book was like having a long and honest supper with an old friend. I finished it feeling nourished, heart opened, humanity seen.\u201d
\n\u2014 GAIL BRADBROOK<\/p>\n

The first full-length book from Dougald Hine, co-founder of a school called HOME and the Dark Mountain Project.\u00a0At Work in the Ruins<\/em> grew out of a strange moment in the second year of the pandemic when Dougald heard himself saying, \u201cMaybe it\u2019s time to stop talking about climate change?\u201d Trying to make sense of how this could possibly be the case, he began writing.<\/p>\n

The book became a reckoning with the strange years we have been living through, the long history of asking too much\u00a0<\/em>of science, and the different things we can be talking about when we talk about \u201ctaking climate change seriously\u201d. It\u2019s also about how we find our bearings and what kind of tasks are worth giving our lives to, given all we know or have good grounds to fear about the trouble the world is in.<\/p>\n

Further praise for\u00a0At Work in the Ruins<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the most perceptive and thought-provoking books yet written about the multiple intersecting crises that are now upending our once-familiar world.\u201d
\u2014 AMITAV GHOSH<\/p>\n

\u201cA book of rare originality and depth \u2013 profound, far-reaching, mind-altering stuff.\u201d
\u2014 HELEN JUKES<\/p>\n

\u201cLet Dougald Hine\u2019s masterful storytelling mark you; let his song of loss and longing, his call to fugitivity, dispossess you of your steady gait and poise. Perhaps then we, collectively infected, might together witness the incomprehensible.\u201d
