<p><b>‘A science fiction genius . . . Ted Chiang is a superstar.’ – <i>Guardian</i></b><br><br><b>With <i>Stories of Your Life and Others</i>, his masterful first collection, multiple-award-winning author Ted Chiang deftly blends human emotion and scientific rationalism in eight remarkably diverse stories, all told in his trademark precise and evocative prose.</b><br><br>From a soaring Babylonian tower that connects a flat Earth with the firmament above, to a world where angelic visitations are a wondrous and terrifying part of everyday life; from a neural modification that eliminates the appeal of physical beauty, to an alien language that challenges our very perception of time and reality, Chiang’s rigorously imagined fantasias invite us to question our understanding of the universe and our place in it.<br><br><b>The science fiction novella 'Story of Your Life' is the basis for the Academy Award nominated film <i>Arrival</i>.</b><br><br><b>‘United by a humane intelligence that speaks very directly to the reader, and makes us experience each story with immediacy and Chiang’s calm passion.’ – China Miéville</b></p>
