All of American literature is a tragedy. What we're living through now isn't a tragedy, however - it's a horror novel. Why bother writing when the world's on fire?​

Rising authoritarianism. Covid. Inflation. Wealth disparity. War. Climate change. While every time period is marked by apocalyptic fears, it certainly seems like our current anxieties aren't ill placed. And yet, art and literature persist.
In captivating and culturally savvy prose, Ed Simon grapples with the notion that writers and their work ought to distract readers from the dire situation we face in these fetid days of the Anthropocene. He also addresses the wider question of what it's like to write during what could be the last decades of human civilization, arguing that to craft imaginative spaces through the magic of words isn't superfluous. Instead it exists at the core of human experience - as it always has and always will.

With the infamous four horsemen as its guide, Writing During the Apocalypse honors the literary life even during the end of the world.
