Ghosh questions why literature, history, and politics struggle to grasp the immense scale and violence of environmental change, suggesting future generations might view our current inaction as a profound imaginative and moral lapse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGhosh argues that the extreme nature of contemporary climate events resists conventional storytelling in serious literary fiction, often relegating such themes to other genres. He also scrutinizes the oversimplifications in historical narratives of the carbon economy, revealing a more intricate, globally interconnected story than commonly presented. The book suggests that both politics and literature have become focused on individual moral reckoning rather than fostering collective action. Ghosh proposes that the climate crisis necessitates imagining new forms of human existence, a task for which fiction is uniquely suited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhy You Should Read?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplores the cultural and political reasons behind our collective inaction on climate change.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers a unique perspective on how literature and history grapple with environmental crises.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePromotes critical thinking on collective responsibility and imaginative solutions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA powerful call to action from a celebrated author on the most urgent issue of our time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43787795038461,"sku":"","price":640.0,"currency_code":"NPR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/4145\/8840\/products\/91Rc0FQQVgS._AC_UF1000_1000_QL80.jpg?v=1676709835","url":"https:\/\/biblionepal.com\/ar\/products\/the-great-derangement","provider":"BIBLIONEPAL","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
