Reseña del libro "Storm Stan (en Inglés)"

Stan, a retired trucker who cares for little but fishing and beer, and Rose live in a community on the Jersey shore. Another hurricane, Wilene, even worse than Sandy, rips through, carries away Stan's garage and his boat inside. Stan and his truck barely escape. He drives to his daughter and son-in-law's place, inland. Stan considers the recent disaster and becomes aware for the first time of climate change issues. He decides Rose and he must ultimately move away from the beach to a safer region and reform their lifestyles to reduce their environmental footprint. Rose resists, straining the marriage. Stan visits Carlo, a former fishing buddy, far out on Long Island. A brutal blizzard comes through, resulting in a disaster. In the aftermath, Stan finds himself inheriting Carlo's 5 mongrels. He returns to Rose at their shore place, but shortly leaves again, with the dogs, to visit another fisherman friend, Manny, in the Poconos. A rain/wind storm comes through. Another weather disaster. Manny's man-hungry sister targets Stan. Home again, still with the dogs, Stan and Rose fight, and he leaves yet again, this time heading down through Virginia into Tennessee, where his truck is stolen and a tornado destroys it. He gets Nashville TV coverage. On the way home, a brutal cold snap hits. Rose tells Stan he is a magnet for storms and extreme weather. He's convinced climate change is responsible. How will he be able to bring Rose around?
