book cover for Irish Anthropocene:
Literature, Climate Change, Sovereignty by 
Malcolm Sen

Helen Penet hosted Malcolm Sen to discuss his new book, Irish Anthropocene: Literature, Climate Change, Sovereignty. The book traces the ways in which contemporary Irish literature responds to climate breakdown. Drawing upon concepts of sovereignty, precarity, and disaster, Sen examines Irish literary works to reveal how they engage with the entangled relations between ecology, economy, and politics.
