Tahmima Anam's novel Uprising, a finalist for the 2026 Orwell Prize, explores themes of climate crisis and exploitation through the story of a floating brothel island threatened by flooding and cyclones. Drawing inspiration from a real island in Bangladesh, Anam emphasizes how an outsider's perspective informs her writing and uses Scrivener to manage multiple character viewpoints and structure her work.
