Table of ContentsReviews“Tracking the strange pleasures and anxieties around geologic thinking in literary texts, popular culture, and scientific disciplines, Dana Luciano beautifully renders how time is felt and experienced at different scales and intensities. Her account of how biopolitics underwrote the pleasingly terrifying view of deep time as expressed by the fossil record is a signature accomplishment. How the Earth Feels makes a stunningly original contribution. I savored every sentence in this book.” -- Stephanie Foote, author of * The Parvenu’s Plot: Gender, Culture, and Class in the Age of Realism * “Tracking the strange pleasures and anxieties around geologic thinking in literary texts, popular culture, and scientific disciplines, Dana Luciano beautifully renders how time is felt and experienced at different scales and intensities.

I savored every sentence in this book.” -- Stephanie Foote, author of * The Parvenu’s Plot: Gender, Culture, and Class in the Age of Realism * “This wide-ranging book takes geology as nothing less than the foundation of modernity, a form of world-making extending from the nineteenth century to our own time, featuring the giddy fantasies of racism and colonialism as much as the rigors of a new science. Empiricism and materialism double here as biopolitics. Clear-eyed, lucid, timely.” -- Wai Chee Dimock, author of * Weak Planet: Literature and Assisted Survival * Author InformationDana Luciano is Associate Professor of English and Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Rutgers University and author of Arranging Grief: Sacred Time and the Body in Nineteenth-Century America.
