Fanny Barry’s Eco Woman series proves “a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.” Barry uses the story of Maeve, an environmental engineer who discovers her superpowers, to explore the impact that human beings have on the earth, as she comes in conflict with entrenched wisdom from all sides of the earth debate. In this overcrowded world, your rights don’t go to the tip of your buddy’s nose anymore: we are intermingled and the rights of the collective must be considered ahead of the rights of the individual.
