An off-beat examination of the denials that underpin extractive
capitalism. From the cratered lake of Chennai, India to the
environmental racism of Neon Genesis Evangelion’s Tokyo-3, Sunny
Ways oscillates between images of environmental collapse and
resistance. Standing waist deep in the massive tailing ponds of
Alberta’s Tar Sands, Sunny Ways wades through the tangled
complicities of climate catastrophe. In the process, the book
grapples with the failure of political hope and the intransigence
of climate change denialism. Fitzpatrick channels his experiences
growing up in the big sky economic pragmatism of Calgary, where oil
pays the rent and puts food on the table, into an essayistic pair
of long poems that echo the ecological poetics of writers like Rita
Wong, Stephen Collis, and Juliana Spahr.
