Description
"Today I swam through MOMA. Leon says it was a waste, encasing the art, then flooding the museum-frivolous and elitist. I say it was a gesture of optimism, a triumph of technology and political will."
Want to thrill to the possibilities of a hopeful future? We asked a bunch of sci-fi writers to spin tales of a better time, imagining ways in which the world might become a happier place.
From a swim through an underwater museum to a joyous dance at a futuristic concert, from the eco-friendly aftermath of an alien invasion and retreat to the refurbishing of an old climate-ravaged home in New Vancouver, these fourteen short sci-fi stories will to restore your faith in the future.
A world transformed is a world we can all hope for.
