Critical Praise

"Both entertaining and informative...hits like a warning shot from twenty-five years into the future."

——Chicago Tribune

"Funny and touching, antic and affecting . . . while Boyle's humor is as black as ever, he demonstrates that satire can coexist with psychological realism, comedy with compassion."

——The New York Times

"As disaster tales go, this is a sly, hip one...Boyle has always liked to play circus barker for life's extremes and what better freak show than the environmental apocalypse itself?"

——The Washington Post
