Raccoon
A Wondertale
“How can we live without Sean Kane’s inspired madness, his loopy intelligence, and the amplitude of his heart?” – DAVID ABRAM, Visiting Scholar in Social Ecology, Harvard University
As autocrats threaten to command a changing Earth, Sean Kane pictures an ecological revolution led by giddy artists against the egocrat “Meathbreath”— a rogue raccoon who dominates the breeding cycle and rules a city. RACCOON is a mock epic romp through current world events and personalities from the viewpoint of intelligent wildlife, with turbulent romances, ridiculous combats, and always laughter, joy, and wonder.
Sean Kane writes about weather myths and crisis ecology in oral histories and wondertales of the Pacific and Atlantic Northwest. He is the author of WISDOM OF THE MYTHTELLERS, an exploration of the oral and ecological basis of myth, and of the campus novel VIRTUAL FREEDOM, a finalist for the Leacock Humour Medal.
