Description

‘This is an impressive study, homing in on a notable gap in writing within the apocalyptic tradition. It is engagingly written, extensive in its choice of texts and, throughout, the textual analysis is in productive dialogue with critical theory. Repeatedly, we learn how the fiction of elsewhere and the fiction of the future urgently speak to our here and now.
