It is this awareness--of, as Harold Fromm writes, "our roots in the earth" (39)--that literary works such as Muir's and Didion's help generate, a necessary step, I believe, before the class moves on to more politically-charged, topical texts that prominently feature the despoilation of the natural world. Succeeding chapters provide extensive discussions of the despoilation of the Californios, as well as of federal complicity with state-sponsored violence and corporate manipulations, of natural and industrial resources, so that the affair of the heart, ostensibly the prime mover of this textual universe, gets reduced to the status of an illustration of social turbulence more generally. |
