Solarpunk

Solarpunk is a movement in speculative fiction, art, fashion and activism that seeks to answer and embody the question 'what does a sustainable civilization look like, and how can we get there? That was the challenge put to the writers, to show #13 me a happier future than the one that grim-dark, post-apocapytic that is so popular today. Here, the gritty present gives way to the hopeful future, whether your future lies in Seattle, Venus, or some distance colony hidden from the dark forces, where mad scientists build a new Eden. Come explore visions of a Utopia just out of reach, but looming in front if you, if your soul has the courage to leap. Be sure to never miss an issue of Boundary Shock Quarterly (www.boundaryshockquarterly.com) for the science fiction you want to read.

In this near future anthology, Solarpunk explores the many ways individuals and resilient groups can fight gentrification, expropriation, abuse and loss of identity, starting within local communities, ultimately to embrace the whole world. Solarpunk traces a path, rough and tortuous, towards a change now perceived by many as a necessity. “Nobody will give us the future” – seem to say these short stories edited by Future Fiction's Francesco Verso. Solarpunk brings stories without borders, from across the world: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Italy, Spain, the UK and USA. Authors are Jerri Jerreat, Ken Liu, Thomas Badlan, Ciro Faienza, Brenda Cooper, Renan Bernardo, Jennifer L. Rossman, Sarena Ulibarri, Gustavo Bondoni, Lucie Lukacovicova, Ingrid Garcia, Andrew Dana Hudson and D.K. Mok. The Flame Tree Beyond and Within short story collections bring together tales of myth and imagination by modern and contemporary writers, carefully selected by anthologists, and sometimes featuring short stories from a single author. Overall, the series presents a wide range of diverse and inclusive voices with myth, folkloric-inflected short fiction, and an emphasis on the supernatural, science fiction, the mysterious and the speculative. The books themselves are gorgeous, with foiled covers, printed edges and published only in hardcover editions, offering a lifetime of reading pleasure.
