<p><b>A memorable, edgy debut exploring the climate crisis and young women on the verge of transformation</b></p>
<p>Edgy and darkly humourous, these stories introduce us to women grappling with climate, fertility, and their relationships with each other, all as they teeter on the verge of transformation. A figure skater in a warming world quits, only to find herself embroiled in the politics of ice; a graduate student becomes progressively unhinged as she reports on the unravelling of her Patagonia research project; an artist finds an unconventional use for her own frozen eggs; a park ranger at Joshua Tree National Park goes to extreme lengths to save his beloved tortoises.</p>
<p>In this daring debut, Georgina Beaty offers a bold, nuanced look at our turbulent times, fearlessly probing the ambitions and confusions of her generation. Wholly unexpected yet wildly entertaining, <i>The Party Is Here</i> slants the world to speak to the uncanny truth of modern life.</p><p><b>A memorable, edgy debut exploring the climate crisis and young women on the verge of transformation</b></p>
