520    "This book is a search for the elusive concept of the 
       Anthropocene: the current geologic era defined by human 
       impact on the planet, a concept that is embedding itself 
       ever deeper into the humanities and across disciplines. 
       Searching for the Anthropocene follows a journey through 
       an eclectic range of topics, texts, places, and events to 
       examine how we relate to, travel across, and write about 
       our environment. We live in a time of rampant consumerism 
       and irresponsible disregard for the natural world. Still, 
       we strive to find authentic interactions, something to 
       counter the feeling of looming doom in which humans are 
       inherently implicated, often searching for these in 
       literature and art. The debates around the Anthropocene 
       are in one sense an effort to reveal and work through 
       these tensions. Ranging from beech forests and beach 
       fossils to jet engines and airport renovations, from 
       snacks and snipers to fantasies of space travel and 
       nightmares of cars on the streets, this book develops a 
       wide-angle approach to environmental awareness. Blending 
       personal narrative, cultural criticism, and ecological 
       thought, Searching for the Anthropocene offers fresh ways 
       to ponder literature and the humanities side-by-side with 
       current conditions of environmental catastrophe, 
       existential crisis, and social unrest"--|cProvided by
