<p dir=\u00a0\u00bbltr\u00a0\u00bb>On September 24th 2022, post-tropical cyclone Fiona made landfall as one of the most intense storms to ever hit the coastal shores of Prince Edward Island. Fiona left in her wake Islanders ravaged and disoriented, in an unprecedented outage that left 95% of customers without power. As Islanders struggled in the days and weeks that followed, what revealed itself was a community\u2019s spirit that cannot be broken.<\/p><p>This collection in poetry, essay and photographs records Islanders’ experience of the storm, from Fiona\u2019s first shocking moments post to the absolute wonder experienced as the lights came back on, home by home. It is a historical record of a weather event that will never be forgotten, and serves to capture the impact of climate change on Canada\u2019s smallest province.<\/p><p><strong>Royalties from the book’s sales will be donated to the Island Nature Trust.<\/strong><\/p><p>Introduction by CBC meteorologist Jay Scotland, Island Nature Trust, Kim Griffin of Maritime Electric, PEI Poet Laureate Tanya Davis and Former Poet Laureate Julie Pellisier Lush, the Great Wisdom Buddhist Institute, cartoonist Wayne Wright, Lisa Chandler, Jennifer Platts Fanning, Michael Pendergast, Millefiore Clarkes, Jordan Beaulieu, Jessica Fritz, Dianne Hicks Morrow, Adrian McNally Smith and more.
