End of a world -- Influence and confluence: family, nature, war -- Ecology then: the lake of tears -- Dispelling dejà vu, part one -- Dispelling dejà vu, part two -- Defying apocalypse -- Apocalypse redux and the fate of sustainability -- No illusions, no fantasy, no melodrama: the legacy of Rachel Carson -- Epiphany matters -- Imagination wild and tame: the smell of money -- The presence of roadkill -- Reprise.

| 520 | |a Blending memoir, cultural history, and a literary perspective, Facing It bears witness to controversies like Tellico and Chernobyl, global warming and local drought. But rather than merely drowning readers in waves of ecological angst, M. Jimmie Killingsworth seeks alternative images and episodes to invoke presence without crippling the hope for survival and sustenance in places and communities of value. In deft, highly accessible prose, Killingsworth takes the reader through a Cold-War childhood, an adolescence colored by anti-war and ecological activism, and an adulthood darkened by terrorism. | ||
