Orange Island: A Novel
Autor Vanessa Francesen Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 mai 2026
In 2060 Orlando, FL, the state’s corruption festers amid unpredictable storms and climate upheaval, plunging society into a desperate eat the rich struggle for survival. As the world crumbles around her, 23-year-old Savannah fights to secure the bare essentials—drinkable water, dwindling food rations, and coveted orange juice. With only her father to rely on, Savannah navigates a world where tech reigns over humanity; and healthcare, climate-controlled housing, and life-saving news alerts are a privilege for the wealthy elite. Everything changes the day she stumbles upon her late sister's journal. Grief morphs into determination as she learns about her sister’s involvement in a pharmaceutical project that could revolutionize medicine for all.
Armed with this knowledge, Savannah holds the key to completing her sister's work. Will she have the courage to do so? Or will fear and despair shackle her to a fate worse than death?

Recenzii
“Orange Island doesn’t ask whether this future is possible. It assumes you’re already living in its early draft—and dares you to recognize it.” — Call Me [Brackets]
"ORANGE ISLAND is a horrifying, heartbreaking, and deeply important read. Frances is Butler-esque in her presentation and dissection of the world’s deepest issues and the ways these issues are bound to manifest. Nor is this story simply an exploration of climate disaster, wealth inequality, food insecurity, and technological disparity. It is a deeply emotional story, examining loss and grief in a world that is rapidly falling apart." —Ryan David Ginsberg, author of In The Algorithm We Trust and The Crumbling of a Nation and Other Stories
