A deeply moving and insightful collection of personal essays from #1 bestselling author John
Green adapted from his critically acclaimed podcast The Anthropocene Reviewed. The
Anthropocene is the current geological age in which human activity has profoundly shaped the
planet and its biodiversity. In this remarkable symphony of essays adapted and expanded from
his groundbreaking podcast John Green reviews different facets of the human-centered
planet-from the QWERTY keyboard and Staphylococcus aureus to the Taco Bell breakfast menu-on a
five-star scale. Complex and rich with detail the Anthropocene's reviews have been praised as
observations that double as exercises in memoiristic empathy. John Green's gift for
storytelling shines throughout this artfully curated collection that includes both beloved
essays and all-new pieces exclusive to the book.
