Book synopsis

Expands the reach of ecocriticism by analyzing the ecological experiences, conceptions, and desires seen in African American writing. It identifies a theory of "ecological burden and beauty" in which African American authors underscore the ecological burdens of living within human hierarchies in the social order just as they explore the ecological beauty of being a part of the natural order.
