Novel Ecologies reading and conversation at Northwestern University
Novel Ecologies investigates a distinctly California environmental imagination shaped by the tech industry. Against the worlds conjured by Google, Open AI, SpaceX and a host of start-ups, the book marshals writers and artists who imagine provisionally hopeful environmental futures while refusing to forget the histories that have made the world what it is.
“In this ode to livingness amidst a reckoning with devastation, Carruth has written a book that we need now and that is a testament to the future.”—Cajetan Iheka, author of African Ecomedia: Network Forms, Planetary Politics
