Stories for Posthuman Readers

Human beings need the help of animals, technology and luck to stay alive, to keep being human. People want to do the right things, but it is not always easy to be good. All protagonists struggle with finding their place in a fast-paced world. The challenges they encounter push them to the limits of their ethics, making them feel a profound sense of suspension. Suspension is not always resolved in the stories narrated in this book, but in all choices made for love and happiness the protagonists’ good will shines like a gem.
