Description
Advance Praise
“Future Fiction is a futuristic compendium of wonder and fear filled with mind-shattering technologies and cutting-edge sciences. ... A ‘must’ for any science fiction reader on the hunt for an immersive, gripping, raw read.”
-- Monica Valentinelli
“Future Fiction offers a selection of imaginative, adventurous sci-fi by international authors – and that is what makes this collection so welcome and exciting. These stories take place in every part of the world and are told in distinct, diverse voices. Whether their focus is transhumanism or ecological devastation, space travel or techno-dystopia, they remind us that future does not happen to a select few, but to everyone, everywhere. Highly recommended reading for anyone open to expanding their idea of international science fiction.”
—Emmi Itäranta, author of Memory of Water
"A mind-bendingly adventurous collection with story content as diverse as its authors."
—AJ Hartley, New York Times bestselling author of the Steeplejack series

Featured Reviews
I could read an ARC of this book thanks to Netgalley, in exchange for an honest review.
This anthology collects the best short fiction published in Italy by the editor Future Fiction and it displays authors from all over the world.
You can immediately perceive and compare the vast range of different sensitivities and matters dealt with by the authors: caregiving robots, maternity and teleportation, home automation and even the mating of giant pandas among the others.
The quality of these stories is very high but my favourite one (and by far) was "Proposition 23" by Efe Tokunbo for both the writing and the worldbuilding, a dystopia you will remember about and I can't wait to read more from this author.
Just read it!
