L'an dernier, Stephen Markley publiait Le Deluge , fresque sociopolitique sur l'avenir du monde. Il a, notamment, imagine les feux qui ravagent la Californie. Terrifiant.
The main conceptual idea of the text is the unsettling resemblance between a fictional dystopian future painted in Stephen Markley's novel "Le Déluge" and the current reality of the devastating fires in Los Angeles in 2024.
The author explores themes of climate change, political inaction, societal divisions, and the dangers of unchecked greed, creating a world where these problems culminate in catastrophic consequences. While the novel predicts these fires, it's the real-life events amplified by misinformation and denial that make the fictional portrayal eerily prophetic and ultimately more disturbing.
The text highlights the blurred lines between fiction and reality, suggesting that our future may be closer to dystopian scenarios than we'd like to admit.
