Climate Change, Interrupted

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Climate Change, Interrupted is a moving and voracious experiment that inspires more than it alarms. I so appreciate the capacious and unexpected circles it draws, and Leckie's sage and spirited company on every page."-Maggie Nelson, author of On Freedom: Four Songs of Care and Constraint "What a treat to read such brilliantly surprising readings of Benjamin, Eliot, and Shelley, braided together in an exquisitely crafted experimental work. Leckie makes a powerful case for the crucial role of the humanities in the climate crisis."-Caroline Levine, author of Forms: Whole, Rhythm, Hierarchy, Network "Highly original, boldly conceived, and extremely thought-provoking. The genuine honesty and directness of Leckie's voice, and the approachability of her experimentation, will ensure this book finds a wide audience."-Kate Flint, author of Flash! Photography, Writing, and Surprising Illumination "This is a dazzling piece of work, and a joy to read-deeply adventurous and undisciplined in the best sense of that term."-Jesse Oak Taylor, coeditor of Anthropocene Reading: Literary History in Geologic Times "The staggering originality of Barbara Leckie's Climate Change, Interrupted: Representation and the Remaking of Time rests upon the title's most innocuous term: representation.... Climate Change, Interrupted unforgettably activates its own claims on an aesthetic level."-Shawna Ross, Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment "It is difficult to do justice here to the complexity, richness, and fascination of [Leckie's] multilayered reading [of Frankenstein], which beautifully weaves together at the end of the book the many threads running in and out of its chapters: interruption, pause, representation, warning, and climate."-Deanna Kreisel, Modern Language Quarterly
