Whoever recommended The Ministry For the Future:
Oh. My. Fucking. God. This book did NOT come to play.
Holy fucking shit it's some of the best #scifi #clifi of all time.
I'm only a fifth of the way through it and I am GOBSMACKED. I'm gonna have some quotations to share but I'll start with the one that I'd heard before...
“It is easier to imagine the end of the world than to imagine the end of capitalism.”

Also, saving this to read later, after I finish the book:
Imagining the End of Capitalism With Kim Stanley Robinson
Kim Stanley Robinson is the author of more than twenty books, including New York 2140, Red Moon, and the Mars trilogy. He talked to Jacobin about his latest work, his vision of socialism, and why we must fight to imagine the end of capitalism rather than the end of the world.
