abstract = "One of the readiest pieces of evidence of a new climate imaginary in the Anthropocene is climate change fiction, dubbed {\textquoteleft}cli-fi{\textquoteright} by some. This chapter considers the parameters of the phenomenon, reflecting on the background to its emergence and its place in the socio-political context of climate activism. It also summarizes some of the dominant themes, narrative arcs and motifs of climate change fiction. Reflecting on the prominence of the realist mode amongst recent examples of climate change fiction, the chapter specifically considers the strategies by which climate has been rendered visible in the realist novel.",
