Life can change on a dime. Jo Giese was a passionate hiker one day, and unable to walk the next.

The richness of the Irish language is closely tied to the natural landscape and offers a more magical way of seeing the world.

There, she confronted, in ways large and small, the challenges of meeting basic needs while facing the ravages of climate change—an experience at once soul-stirring and practical that she recounts in Shelter and Storm.
