The Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson.
Kim Stanley Robinson uses imagined eyewitness accounts to explore the human consequences of climate change. The scale is planetary, but the narrative keeps returning to the lives through which a crisis becomes real.
Read it for the challenge of connecting individual experience to collective action. It opens a conversation about what fiction can make visible when the dimensions of a problem exceed any single person's perspective.
