"These studies should enrich the discussion of how to prepare communities to grapple with energy and climate challenges in an equitable way."-E. Gomezdelcampo, Choice

"Original, well researched, and current. Hydronarratives is an important contribution to the field of environmental justice and creates a clear connection between artistic imagination-film, museums, photography, sculpture, and literature-and broad social change. Matthew Henry's book is broadly and impressively grounded in theoretical, journalistic, and political conversations. He deftly demonstrates the connections between these sources and the vital work of reimagining our future."-David T. Sumner, professor of English and environmental studies at Linfield University
"Hydronarratives is poised to make a valuable contribution to the field-specifically regarding cultural studies-with its inclusion of contemporary politics and hopeful futures. The discussion of racial capitalism in particular is thoroughly detailed as it pertains to water issues in key U.S. cities and regions. Complicated and controversial works are analyzed with elegance and care throughout."-Kathryn Cornell Dolan, author of Cattle Country: Livestock in the Cultural Imagination
