Linda Mary Wagner Book Signing
Author Linda Mary Wagner will sign copies of her new book, Rear-View Reflections on Radical Change: A Green Grandma’s Memoir and Call for Climate Action.
In Rear-View Reflections, Wagner presents a compelling collection of essays, nonfiction stories, and poems crafted between 1972 and 2022. Drawing on her experiences and insights, Wagner delivers a powerful call for unity and climate action, urging readers to prioritize environmental stewardship for the sake of future generations.
Praise for Rear-View Reflections:
“Wagner’s writing is lively and emotive, no matter the genre—her passion and frustration are always apparent on the page. Perhaps the book’s most interesting aspect is how evergreen many of her concerns are.” – Kirkus Reviews
“What a wonderful reminder that we can spend our lives working for the common good — and that that work will enrich our lives and our communities immeasurably!” – Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature
Structured into five sections, each mirroring a consecutive decade from 1970 onwards, Rear-View Reflections serves as a thought-provoking sequel to Wagner’s first book, Unearthing the Ghosts: A Mystery Memoir. The memoir begins with a succinct summary of the traumas explored in her initial work, offering a glimpse into Wagner’s subsequent engagement with social and political movements that were once deemed revolutionary.
The book will be of interest to those concerned about climate change, the 2024 USA election, women’s issues, racial and economic justice, parenting and grandparenting, consumer rights, writing, and writers’ rights. Many of Wagner’s historic essays and poems are easily readable and can stand on their own.
