Europarama is a podcast series about science fiction and the Future of Europe. In each episode I have been co-creating a fictional scenario for the future of the continent with other authors from all over Europe. This is not a top 5 but a summer reading list to begin exploring the intersection between fiction, politics and the future of Europe.
1
What if 1950s England would conquer the whole continental Europe? What if a pan-European railway line and an apartment block would be independent states?
2
A near-future where the commodification of society reaches a point that language is privatised and we begin to pay for the words we use.
3
What if a tinder-like app would replace elections? What if the European Union would be left as the only entity to prevent anarchy in the continent?
4
What if Europe would fragment and Malta would be occupied and transformed into an Italian rockets launch base? What if time-traveling would lead to a circularity in history?
5
When science fiction blurs into our daily news: a Europe where trolling factories hamper democracy.
