Political fiction is a subgenre of fiction that deals with political affairs. Political fiction has often used narrative to provide commentary on political events, systems and theories. Works of political fiction, such as political novels, often "directly criticize an existing society or present an alternative, sometimes fantastic, reality."
I look through this year's shortlist for the 2022 Orwell Prize for Political Fiction which celebrates the best fiction which illuminates major social and political themes. Click ‘Show More’ for info & links.

I'm not your little girl
I will not believe
Those stupid faces
You can see on TV
I've had a few boyfriends
I've tried a few tricks
So treat me like a lady
And don't lie to me
Political fiction /Your policy of love
You don't feel anything warmer than snow
Political fiction / Don't sell this trash to me
I will not stand by you / Just don't count on me
I'm not you little girl
I won't shake your hand
You have to explain to me
Every step you take
I've had a few boyfriends
I've tried a few tricks
I know how to be a lady
And you are such a prick
Political fiction (...)

Listening to stories widens the imagination; telling them lets us leap over cultural walls, embrace different experiences, feel what others feel. Elif Shafak builds on this simple idea to argue that fiction can overcome identity politics.
