Abstract
In Nicholas Royle's An English Guide to Birdwatching (2017), Ethel considers the ‘unnatural' lurches in the weather, wondering ‘Was this the tipping effect everyone had been tipped off about?' Reading Royle’s literary tipping effects, this essay explores the relationship between climate change, impossible forecasts, and language tipping 'off kilter'.
