I absolutely would recommend. Against the Loveless World to ease them in would be my suggestion.

Nearly a decade ago, Amitav Ghosh, in THE GREAT DERANGEMENT, asks why literary fiction has failed to engage with climate change, and indeed attempts to make the case that literary fiction categorically cannot take on the task (9/x)

This is one on the list I'm really hoping to read. I have Good Girl & I'm currently reading Fundamentally by Nussaibah younis

I also read Parable of the Sower in Feb. It was such a chillingly brutal read.

I read Parable of the Sower last month and was blown away by it.

It's a heavy read so I'd check the trigger warnings but if you like dystopian fiction then I'd highly recommend this.

I also started The Brothers Karamazov last year but wasn't in the right mood for it at the time so I'm going to try again this year
