"""This thoughtful and wide-ranging book is for those who wish to understand our predicament clearly, but especially for those looking for a glimmer of hope in our current darkness."" ""Written in a feisty and urgent style, The Exhausted of the Earth does the important work of not only showing that climate disruption and the Anthropocene are political, but also that they change what politics means. It shifts our attention in many, much needed ways.” ""Destined to be a classic, a touchstone in global climate struggles to come... The Exhausted of the Earth is a gift to a world burning to learn."" “The Exhausted of the Earth opens new horizons for urgent and immediate climate action. A must-read for our times.” ""This wonderfully rich inquiry into late climate politics zooms in on exhaustion as the predicament of a world too long subjected to the ‘extractive circuit’ of capital. If there is any way to fight back, it is, as Singh Chaudhary so convincingly argues, with southern resources, assembled by everyone from Frantz Fanon to Imam Mahdi."""
