Even Greater Mistakes
Even Greater Mistakes: Stories | Charlie Jane Anders
4 posts | 2 read | 1 reading | 4 to read
In her short story collection, Even Greater Mistakes, Charlie Jane Anders upends genre cliches and revitalizes classic tropes with heartfelt and pants-wettingly funny social commentary. The woman who can see all possible futures is dating the man who can see the one and only foreordained future. A wildly popular slapstick filmmaker is drawn, against his better judgment, into working with a fascist militia, against a background of social collapse. Two friends must embark on an Epic Quest To Capture The Weapon That Threatens The Galaxy, or else theyll never achieve their dream of opening a restaurant. The stories in this collection, by their very outrageousness, achieve a heightened realism unlike any other. Anders once again proves she is one of the strongest voices in modern science fiction, the writer called by Andrew Sean Greer, this generations Le Guin. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Really enjoying my #QueerBC read for July. Sharp, funny, insightful stories. Best of all, it includes a story I've been trying to track down for ages!

PuddleJumper That sounds great! 4mo
lil1inblue I've been so behind, but I finally started All the Birds in the Sky yesterday. I read almost half in one sitting - it's a really good read so far! I'll have to add this to my list, as well. I've ben looking for some good short stories. 4mo

Great collection of funny, exhilarating and sometimes uneven (a couple of a bit too earnest) SF short stories - visions of hope during dark times. The Bookstore at the End of America and Rock Manning Goes for Broke were particular favorites for me. Best of all was Clover: which the author notes is a quasi-sequel to All the Birds in the Sky, answering the question “What happened to Berkley the cat?” 😂 🌟😂

I've been a fan of Charlie Jane's work since All the Birds in the Sky. This short story collection does not disappoint.
