Description
The Quickening: Antarctica, Motherhood, and Cultivating Hope in a Warming World
Elizabeth Rush's groundbreaking voyage to Antarctica offers a vital work about climate change, community, and the human experience. Onboard the Nathaniel B. Palmer in 2019, she joined fifty-seven scientists and crew on a mission to learn as much as possible about the Thwaites Glacier at Antarctica's western edge.
This book is a personal journey around the question of how we create and celebrate life in a time of radical planetary change. Rush shares stories of everyday moments, from ping-pong tournaments at sea to long hours in the lab, highlighting the collective work of imagining a better future for our planet.
