This book is for the many of us who are disheartened by the world and its tragedies. John Green's essays examine the minutia of the current geological age (the Anthropocene) and the moments, objects, & phenomena that define it. A world of overthought about Dr. Pepper, Canadian Geese, whispering, Monopoly, even viral meningitis are rated on a 5 star scale.
Even when writing about the traumas of the COVID-19 pandemic, Green address hopelessness with insight. He finds realistic hope, by gracefully presenting his wit and fatherly wisdom. I give John Green's The Anthropocene Reviewed, 5 out of 5 stars
