85% True/Minor Ecologies

While following in the footsteps of Zora Neale Hurston, Kristen Gallagher finds H.P. Lovecraft alive and well in Florida. Written as a series of first-hand accounts from the gooey, disorienting, mutant front lines of climate change, 85% TRUE/MINOR ECOLOGIES explores the eco-horror of everyday-life. In this book, we find a Florida filled with islands of cannibal snakes; starfish devouring their own flesh; poisonous frogs that may or may not have been weaponized by the government; and New Age cultists diving for Ponce de Leon's lost relics. Ranging freely across poetry, fiction, and anthropology, Gallagher constructs a new nature writing in which partial untruth becomes an essential way of expressing the full horror of the slow-death of our world. Fiction. Hybrid Genre. Environmental Studies.
