"These insights are extremely important. Moreover, they go a long way toward creating a more sophisticated feminist ecology."-Los Angeles Review of Books"It is certainly a volume that due to its richness I will no doubt regularly return to and use as a point of reference."-Leonardo"What the authors in Anthropocene Feminism do collectively is foreground alternative timelines, histories, locations, and speculations for the Anthropocene, refiguring it as provocation for what remains to be done."-Glasgow Review of Books"Anthropocene Feminism anthologizes nine major thinkers in feminist theory whose work engages the current ecological crises. The book stages a rich transdisciplinary exchange among its contributors." -Signs Journal
