- Book Synopsis
- "These stories are grounded in soul, a deep communion with the belief that we can-and must-rebuild our relationship with the planet."-Omar El Akkad, author of What Strange ParadiseOtherworldly but remarkably familiar, ancestral but firmly rooted in alternate futures, these twelve innovative stories-winners of the Imagine 2200 climate fiction contest organized by Grist-offer 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.
