Inland

Welcome to the gripping narrative of Inland, Kate Risse’s first novel that transports readers into the near future, where the forces of climate change irrevocably alter the Earth’s landscape. Set in the year 2026, Inland is not just a journey across the flooded ruins of America but a deep dive into the resilience of the human spirit in the face of overwhelming odds.

Inland challenges readers to consider the future we are creating, emphasizing not just the environmental impact of our actions but the human cost of inaction. Through Juliet, Martin, and Billy’s intertwined stories, Risse explores themes of survival, technology’s double-edged sword, and the indomitable nature of human relationships.

Kate Risse teaches Spanish language and culture at Tufts University. She has published articles on Spanish history and literature. Inland is her first novel. She lives in Brookline, Massachusetts, with her husband and two daughters.
