Summary

The world is facing a series of large-scale crises – war, declining democracy, climate catastrophe.  So, is it all a sign that our civilisation is reaching its limits – and that our economic and political systems are nearing collapse? That’s the question Australian author Sarah Wilson has been interrogating for the last three years for her new book, ‘I Eat The Stars’. Today, writer Sarah Wilson on what happens when the systems that hold us together begin to fray all at once – and what the future looks like after civilisational collapse.    If you enjoy  7am , the best way you can support us is by making a contribution at 7ampodcast.com.au/support .   Socials: Stay in touch with us on Instagram Guest: Author Sarah Wilson Photo:  sarahwilson.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
