Beschreibung:
ANDREW MCMURRY is associate professor of English language and literature at the University of Waterloo. He lives in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.
In playfully pessimistic and thought-provoking essays, author Andrew McMurry explores a vital but fundamentally perverse human practice: destroying our planet while imagining we are not. Entertaining Futility investigates the discourses of hope, progress, and optimism in the era of climate change, concepts that, McMurry argues, are polite names for blind faith, greed, and wishful thinking.
