Department of the vanishing
Bell, Johanna2026
Book
Before the Anthropocene, the air pulsed with birdsong. Now, a silence is falling. Ava spends her days at The Department, rebuilding lost species from the remaining fragments of art and scientific data. Her dying mother thinks she should quit. So does her lover, and the sex workers who loiter outside her apartment.
