We all die at the end offers a survey of contemporary end-of-the-world fiction, spanning literature, children’s fiction, video games, theatre and film. It draws on eco-critical philosophy and narrative theory to show ways in which the climate crisis is reorienting storytelling in the face of foreseeable human extinction. In the process, it argues that such stories have a role to play in helping us come to terms with the severity and scale of the crisis that we face.(.)
As the ravages of climate change throw our future into question, many of our stories are turning to the subject of extinction. This book is about what they are saying and why it demands our attention.(.)
