The reader s senses are deliciously engaged, and her mordant wit makes itself felt like pins stuck in a yard of velvet. Sarah Perry. Weather by Jenny Offill Granta, 12.
In fragmented vignettes, like her 2014 novel, Dept of Speculation, Offill depicts an American woman s quotidian anxieties a young son, an addict brother, money worries rubbing up against her near-paralysing fear of the coming chaos of climate apocalypse. Masterfully marrying humour and dread, this is a novel about coming to terms with helplessness.
