Career
Dimick's first book, "Unseasonable: Climate Change in Global Literatures" (Columbia University Press, 2024), examines how the environmental arrhythmias of an overheated world jar literary and cultural forms. Her writing has appeared in journals including ISLE, Contemporary Literature, Post45: Contemporaries, Mosaic and other venues. Her research has been supported by the Harvard Radcliffe Institute, the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities at Edinburgh University and the Greenhouse at the University of Stavanger.
She currently serves as a co-editor for Under the Sign of Nature, a book series in the environmental humanities published by University of Virginia Press.
