Writing ecofictionnavigating the challenges of environmental narrative /[electronic resource] :by Kevan Manwaring. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2024. - xiii, 257 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Part I: Taproots -- 1 Introduction -- Part II: Branching Out -- 2 Situatedness: the ground beneath your feet -- 3 Beyond the Pale: going beyond what you know -- 4 Voices of the Global South: subverting the hegemonic -- 5 Activism vs Art -- 6 Shaping a World in Flux -- 7 One Man's Heaven: utopia, dystopia, ustopia -- 8 The Rhizomatic Writer: emergent forms and cross-fertilisations -- Further Reading and Resources.

This creative writing textbook introduces students to ecofiction: narrative writing that focuses on the environment. Also known as 'climate fiction' or 'cli-fi', an increasing number of short story writers, novelists and pioneers of emerging forms such as interactive fiction are taking up the call to develop their own creative responses to the climate crisis. This guide explores a cross-section of genres and ways of writing about our world, as well as the ethical and technical challenges involved. It offers a discussion of classic and contemporary texts, literary criticism and creative writing exercises. The book covers a broad range of themes and styles of writing, from works that engage with nature and landscape writing to those that take a more activist approach to climate change. With an awareness of the Global South and the subaltern, the framing of the Anthropocene, wilderness and nature writing is challenged. Each chapter offers a new perspective on ecofiction for the creative writer, with reading suggestions and connections to other writers and texts, and writing activities. Designed for upper-level undergraduate and postgraduate writing modules on the environment, the book is also suitable for independent writers looking to expand their skillset. Featuring 20 interviews with ecofiction authors: Ana Filomena Amaral, Austin Aslan, Denise Baden, David Barker, TC Boyle, Lynn Buckle, Adam Connor, Michelle Cook, Julie Carrick Dalton, April Doyle, Anna Holmes, Somto Ihezue, RB Kelly, Gill Lewis, Anne Mordell, Anthony Nanson, Midge Raymond, Manda Scott, Mary Woodbury, John Yunker. 'An extensive and enthusiastic guide into the wild and varied worlds of eco-fiction.' --James Canton, Director of Wild Writing MA, University of Essex, UK.
