| Sumario: | In this work we are interested in exploring the agency of matter to tell stories in two fictional texts from the materialist ecocriticism: “There Will Come Soft Rains” (1950) by Ray Bradbury and “La carretera” (2006) by Cormac McCarthy. Both stories present a post-apocalyptic landscape resulting from a nuclear disaster that is not specifically mentioned in any of the texts. In Bradbury's tale, human and animal life has completely disappeared from the face of the earth, while in McCarthy's novel only a few human beings are left trying to survive in a barren and inhospitable environment resulting from a nuclear holocaust. |
