John enjoys 'Clade' in the new genre of 'cli-fi' writing



Cli-Fi” is the new genre in writing.

John Lewis - he found "Clade"
 moving and ultimately uplifting.
And it was Shepparton News reporter and Beneath the Wisteria supporter, John Lewis, who recently read one of these books and said:

“Just thought I’d tell you – I’ve just finished reading a fascinating Australian novel about the near future called Clade, by James Bradley.

“It deals with the generation effect of climate change, not in an overly dramatic or dystopian way, but in close human relations and the effect on families.

“It talks about the shrinking of the ice caps, loss of species, and plagues – from a poignant personal perspective involving several characters in a time scale of 2015 to 2057.

“It’s a novel, and not heavy on the science, but I found it a moving and ultimately uplifting account of the human experience of climate change,” John wrote.

The book is reviewed in a report in the Sydney Morning Herald - “James Bradley's Clade finds glimmer of hope in extreme future”.
