From Tragedy to Apocalypse in American Literature: Reading to Make Sense of Our Endings

This book argues that imaginative literature is essential to comprehending contemporary threats to human life. Readings of postwar American works by Robert Lowell, Wallace Stevens, Cormac McCarthy, and Norman Maclean show how their literary forms educate us to the reality of a new ground of sensemaking—the apocalyptic sublime.
