Seeing Green

Novel · 2012

Arcani Kirsch is certain she's right. The world has other plans.

A recent graduate with a mission heads to Washington, DC, determined to move an international treaty and, along the way, everyone around her. Seeing Green is a funny, fast-moving novel about idealism, international and office politics, and the rocky, rewarding terrain of family and love, told through a multicultural young woman with a lot to learn.

“Timely, energetic and witty.”

Why I wrote it

[Two or three sentences in your own voice: what pulled you to this story, the world of NGOs and politics you knew, and who you wanted Arcani to be.]
