{"product_id":"9780820353159","title":"Ghost Fishing: An Eco-Justice Poetry Anthology","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGhost Fishing\u003c\/i\u003e is the first anthology to focus solely on poetry with an eco-justice bent. A culturally diverse collection entering a field where nature poetry anthologies have historically lacked diversity, this book presents a rich terrain of contemporary environmental poetry with roots in many cultural traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEco-justice poetry is poetry born of deep cultural attachment to the land and poetry born of crisis. Aligned with environmental justice activism and thought, eco-justice poetry defines environment as “the place we work, live, play, and worship.” This is a shift from romantic notions of nature as a pristine wilderness outside ourselves toward recognition of the environment as home: a source of life, health, and livelihood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGhost Fishing\u003c\/i\u003e is arranged by topic at key intersections between social justice and the environment such as exile, migration and dispossession; war; food production; human relations to the animal world; natural resources and extraction; environmental disaster; and cultural resilience and resistance. This anthology seeks to expand our consciousness about the interrelated nature of our experiences and act as a starting point for conversation about the current state of our environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors Include:\u003c\/b\u003e Zein El-Amine, Camille T.
