An interesting exploration of why the modern novel fails to address climate change. It deals with both the uncanny aspects and improbability of the type of extreme weather events we are to expect from now on, as well as the rise and limitations of modern literary fiction, and how the two are seemingly incompatible. Interesting insights, though a little hard to read at times.
