    1. "History tells a story, one of the earth and time, time before and time now" - Love this!

      I like how this page uses poetry and visual art to challenge the Anthropocene as a single linear story by showing that different histories, spaces, and ways of living coexist at the same time.

    1. I never knew that climate change as a literary subject has been avoided in ficiton novels! This definitely challenged my understanding of the Anthropocene, more specifically how people interact with the Anthropocene by showing me that our relationship to it is shaped not only by environmental reality, but by what literature makes visible or leaves out.

    1. This page is strong because it shows how stories and personal experience can make climate change feel immediate rather than distant. It's also one of my favourite pages because my project also focuses on the importance of personal stories as productive devices in the Anthropocene!

    1. I really like how this page shows that setting is not just a narrative device that initiates the main backdrop and mood for a story. Setting importantly makes climate crisis imaginable to the reader.

    1. This page makes a crucial point that the word "our" can flatten certain groups' responsibility and hide the unequal histories behind this epoch of ecological crisis

    1. I like how this page fames literature as a way of making the Anthropocene feel intellectually and personally graspable/understandable (rather than it being an abstract concept)!
