Reviews

Matthias Stephan’s book raises important questions on the impact of climate fiction. It offers a convincing argument on how specific affects and literary modes--for instance, nostalgia and the gothic--can enhance fiction’s ability to reshape environmental attitudes. * Marco Caracciolo, Associate Professor of English, Ghent University, Belgium. *
