"Diverse in style, and inspirational in nature, this nine-story anthology of climate-themed fiction is an empowering, engaging toolkit for young readers, environmentalists and activists."
Edited by Lauren James, this anthology of nine short stories themed around the climate crisis is undeniably hopeful in name and nature. In fact, as Nicola Davies states in her foreword, “dreams and stories are the seeds are change,” with the writers featured in this collection doing a grand job of sowing such seeds.
From Oisin McGann’s adventure-driven story of Eyeballs, Tentacles and Teeth that sees a fishing community unintentionally deploy geoengineering techniques, to Tolá Okogwu’s heart-warming tale of family love and community food production, Future Hopes is nothing but engaging and thought-provoking as it covers a wide range of approaches and genres — everything from stories infused with fantastical elements, to tales that explore the food of the future and augmented reality.
Adding to the sense of hope and empowerment, the editor suggests how readers might implement each story’s ideas for bringing about positive change.
