Only just came across the topic of permaculture science fiction.

Many years ago I read two books by Ernest Callenbach. Titles in German are:
Ecotoia, Ein Weg nach Ecotopia. They certainly helped me at that time to
formulate my idea of what I wanted from life and what I could do without.
Both deal with ideas about the environment (alternative energies and
materials) and people (communities, new government) which partly fit very
well with my idea of permaculture. Anybody else read them?

Another one is Bliss by Peter Carey. A weired and wonderful story about
somebody leaving his 'business world' to live with a group of people in
close contact with nature.

ideas related to Permaculture, sustainability etc?
