Synopsis

In the year 2025, when global warming and the collapse of the biosphere have resulted in the extinction of most species, Tyrone O'Shaughnessy Tierwater is the caretaker for the strange menagerie of animals kept by a rock megastar in southern California. Years ago, Tyrone was a convicted ecoterrorist, estranged from his wife and daughter. Now his daughter, Sierra, re-enters his life. In a series of flashbacks to the 1980s and '90s, Ty's romance with Sierra's mother, their revolutionary activities, and his years on the lam are recounted.
