Guys, i'm about to send a script to literary agents. To describe the genre of my book, the closest i can think of would be dystopian fiction...although dystopian feels a lot more final than the tone of it.
What similar genre descriptions would you think of?
cuck fiction
fagtion
Niggation?

Edgy

Misanthropic
Existentialist
Not OP but great answers guys!
Probably want to avoid "dystopian fiction" since its not a genre and will red flag you as a "videogamer"

It's not a genre? Um Fahrenheit 451 and War of the worlds are definitely in that genre...

It's not a marketable genre though, you're not going to go to the 'dystopia' aisle (or, more relevant to today, click the 'dystopia' category on Amazon).

I'd say it's a sub-genre of science fiction.

Right, but Science fiction feels too broad... My story happens in a similar world to ours, so it's not strictly sci-fi
