Description
Earth Shattering brings together over two hundred poems addressing environmental destruction and its impact on our planet. From the effects of global warming to the loss of species, this collection offers a powerful response to the challenges facing our world.
The anthology features contributions from renowned poets, including Wordsworth, Hardy, Rilke, and many others, as well as leading contemporary voices such as Wendell Berry, Helen Dunmore, Joy Harjo, Denise Levertov, W.S. Merwin, and Gary Snyder. This is the first comprehensive collection to showcase the full range of ecopoetry, spanning centuries and continents.
Earth Shattering dramatises the dangers of a modern world disconnected from nature and dominated by technology, self-interest, and economic power. As our world hurtles towards ecological disaster, poetry offers a vital voice for warning, lamentation, and hope.
