"Cade's strength shines in her beautiful descriptions ... This thoughtful work is a reminder of humanity's connection and responsibility to the natural world." - Publishers Weekly"Echoing Jeff Vandermeer's Annihilation and Rita Indiana's Tentacle, Cade pushes climate fiction deeper, asking the reader to reflect, consider, and repent.." - Alexander Pyles for The Chicago Review of Books "Uncanny, unsettling, brilliant, etcetera; as well as the thylacines there are jellyfish, robots, rock wrens, rats, and a new kind of psychological devastation that flourishes and evolves as everything else collapses. Called simply "Grief", it is contagious, and hard to spot, and it feels like a creature that's already here." - Catherine Woulfe, The Spinoff Book Report"The Impossible Resurrection of Grief will haunt you. An examination of the emotional resonance of extinction through well-wrought characters, the book's themes of connection and loss and the crushing burden of caring are revealed by Cade's signature lyrical prose in an all-too plausible near future. There are no easy answers to be found here, but Cade offers a glimpse toward a way through the grief of both everyday and extraordinary losses." - Nebula Award finalist M. Darusha Wehm, author of The Voyage of the White Cloud
