This is a Cover Feature essay, along with the accompanying illustration, published in KLN Vol. 60. Under the title “A Different Way of Life, A Different Kind of Fiction,” writer Choi Jeonghwa reflects on how her life has changed since she gave up shopping in an effort to protect the environment. She asks the reader to turn their attention to the urgency of the climate crisis in the contemporary era, which has prompted her to write her short story collection The Weathermaster.
