The narrator in Weather by Jenny Offill is a librarian obsessed with disaster and the approaching end of the world in the Trump/climate change era. The character is whimsical, honest, kind, neurotic and real. The prose is excellent and consists of little paragraphs set apart from each other that are complete in themselves yet advance a narrative as well. Here’s what The Guardian says:
