Future Science Fiction Digest Volume 9: The East Asia Special Issue by Alex Shvartsman & Taiyo Fujii &  digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Future SF is a magazine focusing on international science fiction.

In this oversized issue we've collected stories from the established masters as well as some exciting up-and-comers in China, Japan, and South Korea.

From machine societies to ocean depths, from interstellar migrations to genetically engineered mermaids, these tales envision very different, often dark, but always fascinating futures.

Includes the following stories:

Rœsin by Wu Guan (translated from Chinese by Judith Huang)

Raising Mermaids by Dai Da (translated from Chinese by S. Quouyi Lu)

Butterfly Blue by Gustavo Bondoni (Argentina)

Reflection by Gu Shi (translated from Chinese by Ken Liu; reprint)

Whale Snows Down by Kim Bo-Young (translated from Korean by Sophie Bowman)

Formerly Slow by Wei Ma (translated from Chinese by Andy Dudak)

Just Like Migratory Birds by Taiyo Fujii (translated from Japanese by Emily Balistrieri)
