The shape of the future is defined by "the remainder:" what is left after the imagined catastrophe. Bellamy draws on a range of disciplinary fields including science fiction studies, American studies, energy humanities research, and critical race theory, to describe how this literary mode accommodates both a reactionary impulse and a progressive impetus for a new world. 606 $aAmerican fiction 606 $aApocalypse in literature 615 0$aAmerican fiction. 615 0$aApocalypse in literature. 676 $a813.509372 700 $aBellamy$b Brent Ryan$01668433 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910816656903321 996 $aRemainders of the American century$94029044 997 $aUNINA
