Punctuated by a series of photographs from Shaktoolik, Alaska, an Inupiaq village whose largely Indigenous population ranks as one of the world's most imperiled by climate change, \u003ci\u003eThis Peculiar Radiant Landscape\u003c\/i\u003e considers the crisis's impact on human migration--not only in the so-called developing world, but in regions where an illusion of stability has long presided--charting both the vast extent of its reach and its troubled intersection with the legacy of colonialism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this volume: Joan Naviyuk Kane pays homage to Shaktoolik with a poem equal parts elegy and ode; Omar El Akkad maps the disturbing ethics and complex economy obscured, in a cold future, by the warmth of a blanket; Heidi Kaloustian draws upon history, art, and our present crises to paint a vivid, Borgesian nightmare; and Olga Zilberbourg channels a single mother who, nursing new life, cannot escape an old sense that the planet... must be as tired of humans as we are of ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaken together, these fourteen pieces constitute an impassioned missive to a damaged world--to this peculiar, radiant landscape--and further illustrate the vitality of world literature in grappling with the urgent problems of our time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProse by: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeyan Bowes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOmar El Akkad\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmanda Kallis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeidi Kaloustian\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaroline Kim\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMelissa Mogollon\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbbigail N.
