Amitav Ghosh's The Great Derangement : Imagining a Crisis for the Earth
Amitav Ghosh's latest book–The Great Derangement: Climate Change and the Unthinkable, on art, history, and climate change, returns him after a long absence to the non-fiction genre of his 1992 work, In an Antique Land. The Great Derangement written in the form of a long essay is in many ways a series of musings on art and climate change punctuated by sections on the history and politics of climate change. The underlying thesis of this work is that serious fiction and the modern novel have proved inadequate to the task of exploring the complexities of climate change. Ironically, perhaps the closest we have to a book about climate change in the literary genre is War with the Newts; which is not about climate change at all. And this absence is puzzling since arguably climate change poses the greatest challenge to the survival of humankind. This failure stems not from an ability to comprehend the scale of the crisis or because of a lack of knowledge. Over the course of human history, literature has acted as the oracle for momentous events. But climate change has failed to inspire literature and has instead been relegated to the sidelines of science fiction.
