On The Table Read Magazine, “the best book magazine in the UK“, From Coil Press Ltd, Anne Wyeth’s From 9 to 5 is the fictional biography of Solomon Isarebe (2008–2093), who shared the climatic benefits of population decline.
From 9 to 5 – The Life and Work of Solomon Isarebe 2008–2093 by Anne Wyeth, from Coil Press Ltd , is a novel about genius, abuse, love, murder and survival of planet earth.
When planet Earth finally started to cool, the 1st of February 2118 was declared Earth Recovery Day by The United Nations. The major driving force? A drop in the world’s population from 9 billion to 5 billion.
As early as the 2040s, Solomon Isarebe had foreseen the potential of population change to reverse global warming. For decades he worked to persuade governments around the world that low fertility rates would lead to planetary salvation without destroying economic growth.
Written 100 years after the publication of his most famous work, Future Perfect (2050), the absorbing fictional life story of Solomon Isarebe, From 9 To 5, examines his prophecies, where they came true, where they were wrong, and the remarkable influence he had on world events. It also looks at his turbulent, tragic and compelling life story in the context of the cultural revolutions, political power shifts and global wars of the late 21st century.
From 9 to 5 explores the visionary who foresaw the route to our climatic redemption through population control’s predictions and how they compared to the reality of the tumultuous decades from 2050 to 2150.
Anne Wyeth, the fictional author of the book, looks back from 2150 to the changes the world has gone through over the preceding 100 years, describing the impact of a decline in the global population from 9 billion to 5 billion and the cultural revolutions, economic changes, political shifts and global wars that ensued.
She compares the reality to the predictions Isarebe made in 2050 in his seminal work, Future Perfect, the best-selling book of the 21st century. Anne Wyeth also paints an evocative portrait of Isarebe, a man whose personal tragedies are in stark contrast with his unparalleled global achievements. It is a tale of towering ego and genius, love and loss, triumph and disaster, but ultimately, the survival and resilience of both Earth and humanity.
Will Isarebe’s vision of a future of economic plenty, a cooling climate and a rewilding of planet Earth come true, or will political forces persuade women to have larger families, so threatening Isarebe’s roadmap to climatic salvation?
This meticulously researched and illustrated book shows us there is scope for optimism regarding the survival of the planet and all because of the decisions ordinary men and women around the world will make about family size.
