As our relationship with the world around us becomes more fragile and
unpredictable, more paraded and more desperate, the role of ecogothic literature is
to give voice to some of the growing fears and deepest feelings we have about our
environment and climate change.

The three ecogothic novellas in this collection show us individuals and societies
coming apart at the seams in the face of an eerieness that is often hiding from us
in plain sight. The toolkit at the end proposes walking, hypnagogic and ‘new ritual’
practices that draw on the novellas and invite refl ection and reconnection.

The whole book was written and devised as part of Phil Smith’s groundbreaking
research as a member of the School of Society & Culture at the University of
Plymouth (UK).
