Eternal Summer

“Informed by images of people trapped indoors in smoke-filled cities from the U.S. to Thailand…[Eternal Summer is] a work of psychological suspense, but Gänsler also wanted German readers who escape en masse each year to the ‘good air’ of their southern mountains to imagine a world that no longer offered such respite.” —Publishers Weekly

“I loved this book. Exploring the unsettling tension between individual lives and the collective upheaval of the climate crisis, it questions what we owe one another. Its haunting is subtle, slow and flickering from page to page until it catches. The two women stayed with me for days afterward.” —Sarah S. Grossman, author of A Fire So Wild

“Gänsler’s language is calm and unerring. Parallel to the fatal consequences of the climate crisis, she also narrates the story of women.” —Der Spiegel

“A feminist climate-fiction novel that gets under the skin in many different ways.” —Berliner Zeitung
