Book Synopsis
Nowhere has a longing for home flourished more than in contemporary environmental thinking, and particularly in eco-phenomenology. Unsettling Nature opens with a meditation on the trouble with such ecological homecoming narratives, which bear a close resemblance to narratives of settler colonial homemaking.

Trade Review
Thoughtful, deeply researched, balanced, and substantive. Eggan’s analysis of the settler colonialist myths of home develops into a profoundly consequential critique of Western humanist culture and European colonial history that should reorient our thinking about our place among other creatures on a threatened planet. The most impressive book of ecocriticism I have read in many years." - Louise Westling, University of Oregon, author of The Logos of the Living World: Merleau-Ponty, Animals, and Language
