"Earth 7 is an elegy to the world we have now, already disappearing, and at the same time, it's a message in a bottle, an offering of hope for some far-off future. Intimate and wistful and hypnotic, full of rich detail and beautiful writing."--Charles Yu

Throw yourself into Deb Olin Unferth's world; you won't regret it."--Jon McGregor
