Hi all,

I've just submitted for proofing "Lives Less Valuable: A Novel" by Derrick
Jensen.

It's been read through; errors corrected; section titles and page numbers
present/protected; text formatted. 190 pages.
I suggest removing the "adult" designation.

Description:
At the heart of a city, a river is dying, children have cancer, and people
are burning with despair.  From the safe distance that wealth buys, a
corporation called Vexcorp counts these lives as another expense on a
balance sheet.  But that distance is about to collapse.  Malia is an
activist who has fiercely fought the everyday atrocities of environmental
racism.  After years of watching countless children die, she's lost faith in
the possibility of systemic reform.  Dennis is a lawyer who still believes
that if enough people have the correct information they will do the right
thing.  Dujuan is a young street thug torn by a chaos of grief and rage at
his little sister's death.  And Larry Gordon is Vexcorp's CEO.  Derrick
Jensen has written a novel as compelling as it is necessary: with our planet
under serious threat, Malia's decisions face us all.
