A decade after accidentally starting the worst wildfire in Montana’s history, Howell risks everything to finally break free from their past.


The great miracle of my life was that no one died.


After one reckless act in the Montana wilderness destroys millions of acres, Howell is sentenced to a decade of probation and fifty million dollars in restitution. They become frozen in the public imagination as the poster child for environmental destruction. Banned from the canyon where they spent their childhood, they are forced to follow the letter of the law or risk harsher punishment.

Ten years later, just as Howell is on the precipice of an “ordinary” adult life at last, chaos descends. The judge overseeing Howell’s case goes missing (in the very canyon where the original crime took place), and Howell's first love reappears. Unable to wait any longer for their future to begin, Howell decides to take fate into their own hands.

A luminous, gorgeously written novel about the radical grace of the natural world and navigating love on a burning planet, Sublimity Canyon asks how we forgive ourselves and each other for the damage we cause.

Commentaires

“Sublimity Canyon is a searing, surprising coming-of-age novel unlike any I've read. Ohman writes with a wholehearted fearlessness, illuminating both the weight of a terrible mistake and the enduring power of art and nature. This is a moving, unforgettable story about hometowns, queer friendship, destruction, and renewal—and what it takes to rebuild a self, a friendship, a family, and ultimately, a world.”—Eliana Ramage, author of To the Moon and Back

“Sublimity Canyon solidifies Ohman as one of the most exciting queer voices writing today, particularly about guilt, shame, and the intoxicating power of forgiveness—for both the self and others. With lyrical precision and overwhelming compassion, Ohman tells the story of a life stalled, a climber stuck in the middle of a route, and what it takes to finally reach for that next hold. This book does the impossible: it is somehow a love letter to nature, a testament to human connection, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of a witch hunt. Consider me wowed.”—Mac Crane, author of A Sharp Endless Need

“Sublimity Canyon is a walk through the wilderness of longing, regret, and the flash decisions of youth that haunt us for a lifetime. Set in an American West teeming with beauty and ecological precarity, Ohman deftly explores how the human and natural worlds are intimately, heartbreakingly symbiotic. Come for the landscapes, stay for the chosen family, and leave emboldened by the way love—sexy, queer love—can persist in the face of tremendous uncertainty.”—Cecily Wong, author of Diamond Head
