    I only read the first chapter for free for the Ministry for the Future or whatever it was called but imo they really fucked up having the wet bulb mass death event portrayed in uttar pradesh instead of some random town in Texas

      Don’t worry India is completely sidelined for the rest of the novel except for one noble savage vignette, one technocrat, and one paragraph talking about a social-liberal uprising against BHP-Hindutva that didn’t rely on any of the currently existing left factions in the country.

      E: and the noble savage vignette is there to talk about pro-climate bitcoin.
