Searching for the Anthropocene

<p>Debated denied unheard of encompassing: The Anthropocene is a vexed topic and requires interdisciplinary imagination. <p/>Starting at the author's home in rural northern Michigan and zooming out to perceive a dizzying global matrix Christopher Schaberg invites readers on an atmospheric impressionistic adventure with the environmental humanities. <i>Searching for the Anthropocene</i> blends personal narrative cultural criticism and ecological thought to ponder human-driven catastrophe on a planetary scale. <p/>This book is not about defining or settling the Anthropocene but rather about articulating what it's like to live in the Anthropocene to live with a sense of its nagging presence--even as the stakes grow higher with each passing year each oncoming storm.</p>
