"In Green Modernism, McCarthy offers various ethical models for the dialogic and equalizing relationship of humans and nature, from a fundamental recognition of nature's active and independent presence (object-oriented ontology), to a responsible and responsive working of the land, to the 'sustained intimacy' with the land he calls 'dwelling.' ... The project of turning modernism's gaze from the psyche and the city to the land is a valuable expansion of traditional criticism." (Mara Scanlon, English Literature in Transition, Vol. 60 (2), 2017)
