About the Author
"Rosenfeld encourages us to hold our own vulnerability in one hand as we hold flourishment in the other during this difficult time of living in the Anthropocene. In a time when we most need affirmative ethics, Rosenfeld offers a tonic for this living, examining digital spaces that give rise to hope by their attention to nonhuman worldbuilding. Through care and attention to nonhumans—trash, plants and meat alternatives, snakes, infrastructures, textiles, and of course, chickens—Rosenfeld attunes her readers to a world in which living well, and being ecologically ready to do so, can only be done in tandem with our more-than-human kin."
