Extinction Narratives Working Group

Faculty and students are invited to join Story Lab's working group on Extinction Narratives, focusing on the ways in which concerns with loss of biodiversity (including the possible extinction of the human race) are understood, imagined, and narrativized. This session will focus on the theme of pandemic, as explored in Emily St. John Mandel's Station Eleven (a novel) in a selection from David Quammen's Spillover (optional). Dinner and texts will be provided. Please email mack.zalin@duke.edu to RSVP.
