From #greenwashing to #greenwarring in 8 years. We cannot wait to decide where we will go from here. Slipping back nostalgically to another age is not an option. The Human Age of environmental impacts is in progress and it is literally fueling accelerated #ClimateChange & a Sixth Mass #Extinction.

"Our Need for Consolation is Insatiable" lays bare the writer’s vulnerable psyche, not only his faltering ego but his fragile ambition to offer something of lasting beauty and meaning to a world indifferent to his very existence.

In 1951 Swedish writer Stig Dagerman wrote an autobiographical essay titled "Our Need for Consolation is Insatiable." It is a remarkable poetic meditation on the life-and-death stakes of the literary imagination from a writer possibly suffering from an undiagnosed bipolar disorder.
