Mountain

In Mountain, seventeen-year-old Camden Amethyst attends a mountain peace gathering with her mother Laureen, a designer of portal energy systems for large festivals and gatherings. Camden comes of age, finds love, is abandoned by one parent and loses another. She learns how to build a sauna beside a stream, how to chop carrots and serve soup to hundreds, how to build shelters and friendships out of gathered sticks, how to become a story gatherer, how to survive in a world where social and environmental breakdown favour the resilient, a world we may all be facing.
