Abstract

Imagining climate change and incorporating it in literature is seen as an uphill task. When the world is ravaged by the rapidly escalating climate change issues, literary imagination has been seen as a way of understanding and exploring the manifestations of climate change in culture and society. The paper intends to look into how iconic objects and images such as the ice, polar bears, butterflies, rising seas and erupting volcanoes form crucial and effective tools in depicting the implications of climate change. Special focus will be given to the work Flight Behavior by Barbara Kingsolver but other works with significant representations of related motifs will also be dealt with.
