I just finished The Deluge by Stephen Markley (all 900pp!)
It’s basically a US-centric “narrative” of the 2030’s, told from the PoV of about a dozen different characters, with the thread of climate change prominent throughout.
Really it’s hard to describe it as good or bad, an enjoyable read etc. It is certainly well written, and characterisation is exceptionally good and detailed, but for me it was by turns scary, amusing, depressing, profoundly sad and wrenching in its humanity. I have no reason to doubt its accuracy based on the science.
It took me almost a month to read because I had to take breaks to get my “cognitive dissonance” recharged.
I would definitely recommend it.
It would make a good streaming series on Amazon Prime or Apple TV.
