The FIRES Of Home reveals an environmental web and a sense of place that takes you to the core of human values and then guides you along a thrilling ride inside human reasoning and belief. It had once been called the Tipping Point. We didn"t know what the Tipping Point might be. We were warned that it might be dangerous. For Doctor Winston Doe, the Tipping Point is a memory: A war called the Jazz War. By battling the Jazz War to a standstill, two generations of soldiers gave their lives, and their memories. The media says the war has been won. Winston Doe was born a Walker; a second generation American nomad made homeless by the changing climate. To the Walkers, the Jazz War was nothing more than the madness of consumption-based society coming home to roost and the only future a consumptive society deserves: extinction. To Winston Doe, it is her path. Drawn into the battle, she finds betrayal, greatness, love, and virtue in a world going mad. Read this startling vision of our space in the ecosystem: When our truths are washed away, and our illusions desert us. A must read for anyone who feels our interconnection with the planet, wonders where we going as a species and what the Tipping Point may really mean to our children.
