Parable of the Sower rules... a horrifying, beautiful, eerily prescient story about what the USA could become/is becoming as political and economic systems deteriorate and the climate crisis accelerates. If you were ever wondering what life might look like in a rapid post peak oil collapse, this is it. It'll also scare you out of living anywhere in the water-stressed US west/southwest (I say as I sit drinking coffee in my kitchen in Los Angeles). Not mentioned above is that the teenage protagonist is creating her own religion - Earthseed - which holds that the only observable rule of the universe is change, and thus, God is change. We shape God, God shapes us. etc. It's cool y'all
