Ecological criticism

 
Morton 75: "To do speculative realism, to do ecological criticism, you don't need to jump to some incredibly different domain with incredibly different vocabulary. You can use what you have [...] You just have to let a little bit of the explosion we've been trying to contain happen, the explosion we've been trying to contain for about two centuries, for as long as the time of industrial fossil fuel burning so far."
 
"the processes operating on you, the reader, are hiding in plain sight in the flickering of language"
