Original, unique, and a significant addition to the humanities scholarship, this book illuminates the historical amnesia in the environmental movement and eco-thought in relation to ongoing violence of dispossession in the colonies of postcolonial states. Tracing the ecological ethics in Kashmir and Palestine while choosing to read personal narratives as cultural texts, Aamir’s individual exegesis of these texts offers key contemporary imaginaries on eco-politics. Her book may be a good source to understand global anxieties about ecocide beyond the emerging postcolonial critique of environmentalism. She manages to challenge postcolonial eco-critique that has typically tended to train its focus more on global “developed” vs “third world” dynamic without disaggregating the postcolonial world itself along a logic of hierarchy.
