My Thoughts:

Sixteen-year-old Joe lives in a town next to a mountain of the waste left from the previous world. After climate change effects took place, there was no going back and no life for people like they knew before. Joe lives with his father, David, and his grandfather, Joe. All residents, including children, collect objects from the garbage mountain and trade them to drifters for food.

Part dystopian (overconsumption and climate change effects) tale, part a fantasy tale.
