With crops failing and society on the verge of collapse, entomologist Cassandra and her brother Alexander prepare to follow the migration of the last monarch butterflies in the world.
The Earth’s insect population has dwindled to critical levels. As crops fail and society teeters on the verge of collapse, entomologist Cassandra and her brother Alexander prepare to follow the migration of the last monarch butterflies in the world. For them, the future is slightly less uncertain: sometimes Cassandra has visions, and her visions always come true. When they encounter a group of survivors at a remote truffle farm, the pieces of her latest vision begin to fall into place.
Poetic, provocative, and timely, SOMEWHERE: A PRIMER FOR THE END OF DAYS presents a vision of the future where evolution is not only essential, but inevitable.
