Review Quotes: "This is not only a timely book but a valuable resource. It bridges several disciplines that have been trying to think through the changing geographical, political, existential, philosophical, and aesthetic questions surrounding borders at a time of climate emergency. That the book does so by paying attention to emergent literary genres, such as climate fiction, and established paradigms of border studies is noteworthy." --Malcolm Sen, Associate Professor, Environmental Humanities, University of Massachusetts Amherst, USA
