The Year of the Flood, by Margaret AtwoodRead about another entry on the list.
The Year of the Flood is a terrifying look at an economic breakdown caused by a combination of disasters and class divisions gone amok. Set in the same ecologically ravaged world as Oryx and Crake, the story examines a society where the government is a corporation, where the upper class live in special communes, and where undesirables are food.
The Year of the Flood made Annalee Newitz's top ten list of works of fiction that might change the way you look at nature.
