Reading Recommendations

We’re putting together a Poisoned Futures? reading list—books that challenge, inspire, unsettle or illuminate. Here are a few of our current favourites… but we’d love to hear yours.

Send us your recommendations hello@hundredheroines.org, and maybe add a few words about what you like or why it matters to you. Fiction, theory, poetry, climate manifestos – all welcome.
