Abstract
Richard Powers is an American eco-novelist whose works explore the relationship between nature and humans and the effects of modern technology and science. His novel, The Overstory, is an example of eco-fiction, which deals with the relationship between the environment and humanity. It offers an ecocritical analysis and shows a significant interest in rural life. This study aims to identify the significance of trees or nature in The Overstory as one of the main concepts in ecocriticism. It provides theoretical and practical new insights on how humans think about non-humans like trees. The analysis aims to depict the concepts of ecocriticism to explore how the characters face difficulties and complexities to keep nature’s existence and preserve it from damage
