From the best-selling author of Palo Alto, finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, a map of three progressive political paths through the climate crisis. To launch the What's Left, author Malcolm Harris will be joined by special guests representing the three paths for a non-adversarial ideological showcase, allowing attendees to not just hear about the book, but to experience it live.

What's Left cuts through the noise and gets real about our remaining options for saving the world. Just as humans have caused climate change, we hold the power to avert a climate apocalypse, but that will only happen through collective political action. Harris outlines the three strategies—progressive, socialist, and revolutionary—that have any chance of succeeding, while also revealing that none of them can succeed on their own.

Vital and transformative, What’s Left confirms Malcolm Harris as next-generation David Graeber or Mike Davis—a historian-activist who shows us where we stand and how we got here, while also blazing a path toward a brighter future.

“What’s Left is a lively, informative, and invigorating book on a subject that truly could not be more important: how to fight for our future on earth.” —Sally Rooney, author of Normal People and Intermezzo

“The climate crisis is the biggest challenge humanity has ever faced. Among the central questions: How do we get off fossil fuels and still keep the wheels of civilization spinning? In What’s Left, Malcolm Harris has written a repair manual for life on our rapidly warming planet. It’s smart, practical, and it will change how you think about our collective future.” —Jeff Goodell, New York Times bestselling author of The Heat Will Kill You First
