Field Ramble with Katie Hale

Send us Fan MailOn 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. FAQ: What is the Field Ramble theme tune? Y Gwydd by Huw Marc Bennett@fieldzine www.fieldzine.comwww.patreon.com/fieldzine
