The world is on fire. The ice is falling into the ocean. There are so many storms, there are no names left to give them. And somewhere in Portland, Oregon, a grieving mathematician named Lance is sitting on his couch, watching it happen. He couldn't save his wife. She went out into the extraordinary heat one day, just to help her neighbors. The heat took her instead. Lance has spent three years working out a solution to the warming that killed her. He knows it'll work. The math is sound. The physics holds. And now he has nothing left to lose. Are you watching the news, exhausted from caring deeply about things that feel too large for one person to change? Then join Lance on his journey to the truth of what still matters. LaGrange is a novel about global warming - and the radical possibility that it is solvable. It's about world peace - and the notion that it is achievable. It is about grief and the permission to move through it into something larger than yourself. It will take you into space to see the world from out there - where there are no borders, no divisions, no us and them. Just one small luminous planet with everyone on it, together. It is about a simple gesture that means hope. About what happens when enough people genuinely coordinate around the same idea - because when they do, that idea will come to pass. It's about taking our world into our own hands and standing up to the forces that have been destroying it. LaGrange will not tell you the world is fine. It will tell you something more useful: that you are not powerless.
That one person still matters. That the root holds even when everything above ground looks dead. That it's time to stop playing small. It's time to save the world. He couldn't save his wife. So he saved the planet instead. The math guided LaGrange - it is a real climate change proposal. EJ Thornton writes books that believe the world can be better - and then make the case for it. One person still matters. And so do you.
