      abstract = {Life Writing in the Posthuman Anthropocene is a timely  collection of insightful contributions that negotiate how  the genre of life writing, traditionally tied to the human  perspective and thus anthropocentric qua definition, can  provide adequate perspectives for an age of ecological  disasters and global climate change. The volumes eight  chapters illustrate the aptness of life writing and life  writing studies to critically reevaluate the role of "the  human" vis-a-vis non-human others while remaining mindful  of persisting inequalities between humans regarding who  causes and who suffers damage in the Anthropocene age. The  authors in this collection not only expand the toolbox of  life writing studies by engaging with critical insights  from the fields of posthumanism and ecocriticism, but, in  turn, also enrich those fields by offering unique  approaches to contemplate the responsibility of humans for  as well as their relational existence in the posthuman  Anthropocene.
