TC Boyle’s “Politics of Nature”

This paper offers a Latourian reading of T.C. Boyle’s novel When the Killing’s Done. It shows that satirizes contemporary ecological debates and stages cultural wars our current culture. also demonstrates, however, does not merely point out impasse ecologies: its fiction intuitively diagnoses “crisis purity” in modern environmental politics points us towards kind entangled ecologies sketched by Latour other recent thinkers. Like Latour’s reinvention more hybrid “politics nature,” allows to reimagine complex contaminated new ecology, away from purifications “NaturPolitiks”.
