THE CITY WHERE WE ONCE LIVED

The scene is a future time that we seem to be moving closer to every day. This audiobook looks at a time when climate change has devastated society, but mankind has managed to cling to life. Patrick Lawlor narrates the work with careful elocution, carefully describing a world frighteningly close to our own in which humankind is just steps from losing all semblance of civilization. Lawlor may speak a tad slowly at times, but his sincerity comes through. Scavengers roam the remnants of a broken city, taking what they need to keep the rest alive, while a mysterious character called The Gardener tries to bring back the green, one plant, one garden, at a time. This novel is a warning. M.S. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2018]
