Man versus Nature: The Disaster Tourist by Yun Ko Eun

This week, we're continuing our discussion of Yun Ko-eun’s The Disaster Tourist with a focus on everyone's favorite topic: literary criticism! We're in the deep end of it this time, exploring whether the ecocritical concerns are weighed fairly against the book’s humanist ideals. Was this not-too-careful novel more careful about ecological disaster? For our series on Rich Country | Poor Country, we will read and discuss three novels: Yun Ko-eun's The Disaster Tourist Jun 3 - 17, Viet Thanh Nguyen's The Sympathizer Jun 24 - Jul 8, and Abdulrazak Gurnah's Paradise.
