"Cli-fi has a central role in allowing us to do the psychological work
necessary to deal with climate change. I am often asked to identify the
climate novel that is the most powerful and effective and, just as
often, I reply that no one novel can do this. The phenomenon of cli-fi
as a whole offers us different ways and a multitude of spaces in which
to consider climate change and how we address it.
Here, then, is my list of a range of novels that offer just such a
diverse set of perspectives. These books provide readers with a range of
thought (and feeling) experiments, from dystopian despair to glimmers of
hope, from an awareness of climate change impacts on generations to come
to vivid reminders of how we are destroying the many other species that
share our planet."
