Chuck Miller

Losing London is set in a near-future where London is slowly being submerged due to the devastating effects of climate change. Rising floodwaters engulf the city's most iconic landmarks, including Tower Bridge and Big Ben, signaling the collapse of a once-great metropolis. As the Thames River overflows, it becomes a symbol of nature's overwhelming power and humanity's helplessness in the face of disaster.

The story follows the people of London as they confront the reality of losing their city. With limited resources and no real plan to stop the flooding, panic and desperation spread throughout the population.

As the water continues to rise, the emotional toll on Londoners intensifies, with fear and sorrow consuming those left behind. The Union Jack, now half-submerged, symbolizes the destruction of the nation's identity and its looming collapse in the face of environmental ruin.

Losing London ultimately serves as a cautionary tale about the impact of climate change, illustrating the urgent need for action before it's too late. Through its depiction of loss and survival, the book explores the fragility of civilization and the consequences of ignoring the planet's warning signs.lity of our civilization.
