Chatter: Oceania's Nuclear and Climate Storytelling with Anaïs Maurer

Chatter: Oceania's Nuclear and Climate Storytelling with Anaïs Maurer

Raised in Mā’ohi Nui (French Polynesia), Dr. Anaïs Maurer is assistant professor of literature at Rutgers University and author of The Ocean on Fire. Her research and writing, including this book, have explored the intersection of the legacy of colonial powers' massive nuclear detonations in Oceania, critical threats from climate change, and the stories the people of Oceania tell about it all.


David Priess chatted with Maurer about her experience growing up in Oceania, the scope of the nuclear detonations in the region, how the people of Oceania have addressed radiation effects through stories, why cultural resilience has remained a greater theme than individualism or victimhood, how these narratives inform our current era of climate change, and more.

The book The Ocean on Fire by Anaïs Maurer


The book Quand le cannibale ricane by Paul Tavo
