Paul Elie is the author of The Life You Save May Be Your Own,
Reinventing Bach and is a frequent contributor to The New Yorker.
As part of our celebration of the 50th anniversary of Earth Day we
invited Paul Elie to trace the literary history of the
environmental movement from Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring to Pope

Earth. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
