About
Livestreamed from Maitland Library.What if we could change our future by rewriting our pasts?
For author Amitav Ghosh and researcher Luke Kemp, navigating the present means understanding the past. In two books, The Nutmeg’s Curse: Parables for a Planet in Crisis and Wild Fictions, Amitav considers human history through our relationship with the environment, while Luke retells the collapse of empires to find solutions for our current existential crises in Goliath’s Curse: The History and Future of Societal Collapse.
Revisit the past to find solutions for the present with Amitav and Luke in conversation with host Clare Wright.
