INVISIBLE PLANETS: Contemporary Chinese Science Fiction in Translation by Ken Liu
Two starred reviews! “This stellar anthology of 13 stories selected and translated by Liu brings the best of Chinese science fiction to anglophones. Although greatly varied in theme and approach, all of these stories impress with their visionary sweep and scope. The inclusion of three essays on the significance of science fiction to China and its writers underscores the thoughtfulness that Liu put into curating this superb compilation.” — Publishers Weekly, starred review
PULL ME UNDER by Kelly Luce
Rio Silvestri is the Japanese American daughter of a revered Japanese violinist; she hasn’t spoken to him since she left her home country for the United States after fatally stabbing a school bully. Twenty years later, a mysterious package arrives on her doorstep—along with news of her father’s death—forcing her to return to Japan and confront her past. “Luce’s debut novel…deftly evokes Japan without exoticizing it… The final act is the novel’s strongest and most confident, weaving the book’s threads together and leaving a lasting reverberation.” — Publishers Weekly readmoreremove
