Sci-fi concepts you could never have imagined

terrifically written with detail and intelligence. every story introduces the reader to a new existential, scientific and/or moral concept like nothing I’ve ever read before. I laughed. I cried. I loved.

Like poetry

I had no idea this was a series of small stories, but I loved it. Each story is beautiful and stands alone in their own unique way, and they were all very moving in their own ways. I very much enjoyed this book.
