We're very excited to welcome authors Roisin Dunnett and Rebecca Tamás to Review - to chat about how they combine climate writing with the spiritual, ritual and belief - in celebration of Roisin's new novel A Line You Have Traced...
A Line You Have Traced is the tale of three women in different eras, threaded together by mysterious forces concerned with changing the past to save the future. They are also connected by their glimpses of odd apparitions, cats, a red notebook, their walks on the Walthamstow Marshes. It is an extraordinary speculative creation celebrating the small but lasting legacies we all make, connecting us to those we never have, and never will meet. The Guardian featured the book as one of their best science fiction, fantasy and horror picks, and marvelled at how 'the juxtaposition of ... timelines is a reminder that even in the darkest times, there is always a next chapter.'
Roisin Dunnett is a writer from London whose fiction pamphlet Animal, Vegetable was published in 2021 by Broken Sleep Books and whose short fiction has been published by Prototype, Hotel, Ambit andVittles.
