In this urgent and imaginative collection, Booker Prize-winning author Ben Okri turns his gifts as a storyteller, essayist and poet to the climate crisis. Blending fiction, essays and poetry, Tiger Work asks what kind of world we are leaving behind, and insists that the time to change course is now, before there is nothing left to save.

Some pieces read like messages sent back from a future that has already seen the collapse; others mix fable, fantasy and magic with clear-eyed warning. Lyrical, powerful and deeply humane, this is a book for anyone who cares about the fate of the natural world.
