Climate Fiction Book Club is a monthly book club that will read and discuss fiction to explore imagined futures of the climate crisis.
This month will be a discussion of The Deluge by Stephen Markley. In 2013 California, environmental scientist Tony Pietrus, after receiving a death threat, is linked to a colorful cast of characters, including a brazen young activist who, in the mountains of Wyoming, begins a project that will alter the course of the decades to come.
About the presenter: Sarah Outterson-Murphy has a PhD in English and teaches high school in Cedar Rapids. She lives in Iowa City with her family and her prairie garden.
Cosponsored by City of Iowa City Climate Action & Outreach, Green Iowa Americorps, and the Iowa City Public Library.

This event is open to the public.
