Field Ramble with Katie Hale
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On this episode we’re joined by Katie Hale to discuss her upcoming novel The Edge of Solitude. Set on a lone ship that's slowly drifting toward the heart of the Antarctic, it's a book which asks us to consider the risks of the planet’s future being left in the hands of a few insanely wealthy individuals.
The Edge of Solitude is a story of ambition, principle and above all fallibility that foregrounds our current climate emergency in the near future. A time of hubris and disappearance.
The book came from a trip which Katie took to Antarctica in March 2020 and maps the complicated legacy and geopolitics of the region.
