"One day all the world will tilt on its axis, one way or another. The tilting is already happening. I don't know what comes next." This is the opening line of Beth Ann Fennelly's new novel, "The Tilted World: A Novel." In this novel, Tom Franklin has created a world that is in danger of tipping off its axis due to humans slowly tampering with the natural environment by cutting down forests and killing species to make room for development.
"The Tilted World" is a story about a family trying to move on after the death of their son and the accidental death of another. It takes place in California's Salinas Valley, where generations have worked the land while others have moved in to take their jobs. The story follows three generations of this family—the grandparents, their children, and grandchildren—as they fight for fair treatment from agricultural companies and struggle to maintain hope after their losses.
It would be difficult for any one person to read The Tilted World without being inclined to shake their head, "Can you believe this?" At the same time though, it's hard not to love a book with such a complicated and realistic plot.
