Metamorphosis (eBook, ePUB)

Climate Fiction for a Better Future
Redaktion: Grist

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Otherworldly but remarkably familiar, ancestral but firmly rooted in alternate futures, these twelve innovative storieswinners of the Imagine 2200 climate fiction contest organized by Gristoffer a glimpse of a future built on sustainability, inclusivity, and justice. A beekeeper finds purpose and new love after collaborating on a bee-based warning system for floods. An Indian family preserves its traditions through food, dance, and the latest communication fads. After an oceanic rapture, a lone survivor adapts to living in a tree on a small island with a vulture he befriends. Flickers of hope, even joy, illuminate these alternate realities.

Curated by Grist, the leading media organization dedicated to foregrounding stories of climate change, Metamorphosis is a visionary and speculative collection. Immersive, thought-provoking, and often surprising, these stories serve as a springboard for exploring how fiction can help us envision a tomorrow in which we flourish and thrive.
