I especially enjoy reading examples of how Solarpunk principles have been applied in the real world, or fiction that breaks down my own mental barriers about whether a better world is possible. So, I started this reading list to document my favorites. It’s starting to grow as a community project, so if you want to make a contribution you’re welcome.
Happy reading!
Monk and robot series has been pretty enjoyable for me.
I just finished the second one yesterday, I really enjoyed them too :) The world felt very sweet and cozy & I liked the latent queerness of the series. I was also a fan of the writers take on robot consciousness, it was refreshing to see them imagined as curious, illogical, and mortal creatures.
I felt the same, looking forward reading more of Becky Chambers!
Just started the Terraformers on yours and the previous recommendation
enjoy!
The Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson is on my reading list, and the next book I’m reading after I finish Death’s End by Cixin Liu (not solarpunk, but hard scifi).
Ah a few I didn’t know yet. Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks for sharing, its a super great list, I already downloaded a few. I especially enjoy fiction that explores how solarpunk principles could look when put into action.
I cant figure out how to follow/interact with the list from my lemmy account, so i just saved the webpage lol. Iff anyone has any tips on making that work without creating another account, im all ears :)
The doc says currently only Mastodon is supported.
Ah makes sense, thank you for the link. Cheers!
Your’re welcome :)
btw in the meantime i’ve seen that plemora can connect, too. Isn’t in the docs though.
Oooo neat :) I really look forward to the various branches of the fediverse becoming easier to interact with as the UI continues being developed
