Reviews

"Teresa Shewry’s Hope at Sea is a rich and informative study of how hope somehow emerges within the embattled contexts of social injustice and environmental destruction."—Stacy Alaimo, University of Texas, Arlington

"The depth of scientific and literary research that underpins Hope at Sea and the convincing argument for the role of the imagination and its creative endeavors in sustaining life, making this a book of great significance."—Australasian Journal of American Studies"A rich archive of poems, short stories, and novels."—Native American and Indigenous Studies Journal"What stands out for me in Shewry’s approach is the copresence of the lyrical, plaintive, yet hopeful sensibility she brings to reading."—The Contemporary Pacific

"This is timely and relevant work that makes a compelling and original contribution to Oceanic, postcolonial, Indigenous, and ecocritical literary studies." —Recherche Littéraire
