Gone Tomorrow sifts through the gunk we won't. 

Through landfills, recycling economies, and global trade routes, she tracks what happens to things once they leave the visible world of consumption. The book is at its best when it lingers on process—how garbage is sorted, buried, repurposed, exported—and the human infrastructures that sustain those movements.

There’s a strong investigative thread, but it avoids flattening into simple moral argument. Instead, it builds a picture of waste as something deeply embedded in economic life, where solutions tend to shift the problem elsewhere rather than resolve it. 

The New Press paperback, 2005 (first edition). Very good copy with light edgewear and minor cover marks; internally clean, includes photography and illustrations.
