How Literature Connects Us

Connect to Climate Fiction

This lists all the classic cli-fi books. Shocks me how many of them I’ve read. Although I’m losing the thickness of skin to read about dystopia. https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/36205.Cli_Fi_Climate_Change_Fiction

This is from NY public library. But I have not read many of them. https://www.nypl.org/blog/2023/09/08/compelling-climate-fiction-read-it-becomes-nonfiction

Same here. A genre within Penguin Random House clearly. But I have not read many of them. https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/the-read-down/climate-fiction

This is by Yale Climate Connections. I like that they describe each book. https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2025/10/climate-fiction-that-will-haunt-you/

This one lists sub-genres like Afrofuturism. https://guides.pcc.edu/clifi

Connect to Eco-Fiction

Environmental fiction overlaps with climate fiction but may have a different storytelling arc. Perhaps eco-fiction or eco-lit is more of a speculative fiction. But some environmental books are non-fiction and document stories of communities impacted by environmental pollution and the legal precedents they set.
