Anthropocene feminism and the Weird temporalities of landscape
This article presents an overview of the topic I have been exploring in recent years – the role of landscape in contemporary British women’s fiction. Here I focus specifically on the use of the short story in relation to temporality and the Anthropocene.

Luscher argued that the term 'cycle', associated with texts such as Joyce's Dubliners (1914), presupposes a totality. Instead, Luscher proposed the term 'sequence' to denote collections in which the text does not arrive at a unity, but with each successive story opens and expands. The individual meanings are not subsumed within the whole but instead gr…
