A deeply moving collection of personal essays from John Green, the author of The Fault in Our Stars and Turtles All the Way Down. "The perfect book for right now." -People "The Anthropocene Reviewed is essential to the human conversation."..... More
This book got me. Part cultural critique, part personal reflection, John Green hits the spot in the satisfying manner of a Gladwell, Sedaris, or Klosterman. He writes with heart, humor and precision, balancing perfectly the contradictory experience of loving humanity and mourning for all that we've cost the world. Even more impressive in that he writes from the vantage point of 2020-21, and yet his reflections on the pandemic don't feel trite, dated or "too soon," but perfectly placed within his theme of exploring the era in which humans find themselves, poised at the precipice of an unknown future built by our own foolish excess. I give "The Anthropocene, Reviewed" 5 stars.
