Episode Details

In Claire Vaye Watkins’ gripping new novel, Yellow Pine, a tight-knit desert community battles a massive solar farm threatening their land and way of life. Rose, a single mom and environmental warrior, fights not just for ancient Yucca plants and tortoises, but for the soul of the Mojave—where silence speaks louder than sirens. Amidst the struggle, she finds unexpected love with Miles, a fellow outsider who sees the desert’s beauty as deeply as she does. With wit, heart, and a wild plan to defy extinction, Watkins delivers a fierce, lyrical tale of resistance, resilience, and the quiet power of standing alone against the tide of greed.
