The profoundly moving story of how love, courage and determination brought Greta Thunberg's family back from the brink 'Urgent, lucid, courageous ... a must-read message of hope ... It is a glimpse of a saner world' David Mitchell, Guardian This is the story of a happy family whose life suddenly fell apart, never to be the same again. Of two devoted parents plunged into a waking nightmare as their eleven-year-old daughter Greta stopped speaking and eating, and her younger sister struggled to cope. They desperately searched for answers, and began to see how their children's suffering reached far beyond medical diagnoses. This crisis was not theirs alone: they were burned-out people on a burned-out planet. And so they decided to act. Our House is on Fire shows how, amid forces that tried to silence them, one family found ways to strengthen, heal, and gain courage from the love they had for each other - and for the living world. It is a parable of hope and determination in an emergency that affects us all.

V srpnu 2018 se tehdy patnáctiletá Greta Thunberg rozhodla nejít do školy a začít před švédským parlamentem svou pravidelnou páteční stávku za klima, čímž zažehla jiskru globálního hnutí bojujícího s klimatickou krizí a inspirovala miliony studentů ke stávkám za planetu. Později obdržela prestižní Prix Liberté či nominaci na Nobelovu cenu za mír. Kniha Náš dům je v plamenech obsahuje český překlad knihy Scény od srdce, kterou společně s Gretou napsala její matka operní zpěvačka Malena Ernman, otec Svante Thunberg a sestra Beata Ernman. V této publikaci najdete také nejdůležitější Gretiny projevy, které v anglické verzi vyšly pod názvem No one is too small to make a difference.
