Simply put what you will be consulting this summer in a comment underneath this post!
I am taking advantage of these days to read and prepare material for the next school year.
My students, who know that I love reading, gave me a really inspiring book entitled "El Hombre que plantaba árboles" (The Man Who Planted Trees) by Jean Giono. And I'd like to re-read "Clima" (Weather) by Jenny Offill.

I'd like to finally read "Land Sickness" by Nikolaj Schultz this summer. Very fitting as we go on holidays. As one of the students of Bruno Latour, he focuses on the consequences of climate change for social theory.
"As a heatwave hits Paris, the author's entire existence is disrupted and disoriented by the effects of climate change. All his normal reference points are destroyed. To escape the heat and his growing anxieties, he flees to the small Mediterranean island of Porquerolles. But even in this idyllic setting, can he escape the harsh realities of the Anthropocene?
Written as a fictionalized travelogue based on the author's own experiences, this inquiry into the issues raised by the climate crisis will be of interest to everyone concerned about the increasingly dire situation in which we find ourselves on our climate-damaged planet."
