Inhaltsangabe

Fact-driven speculative fiction. What could've been. What should've been. * "[A] brain-slap of speculative fiction ... 18 stand-alone grenades disguised as stories ..." Reid Winslet Just reading it ['What Sane Man'] was satisfying." Anonymous, ovarit.com "This ['Men Need Sex'] is terrific!" An ovarite from ovarit.com "OMG, I love it ['Ballsy']!" Amareldys, ovarit.com "If you read this and it doesn't get you thinking, pondering the issues that it illustrates, and recognizing some of the problems it is illuminating, then I don't want to say you might be a big part of the problem, but ..." 5/5 Big Al's Books and Pals "Readers who love the speculative social commentary of Margaret Atwood, the sharp edged fiction of Ursula K. Le Guin, and the unflinching explorations of gender and power of Naomi Alderman will find in Fighting Words a collection that is satisfying, terrific, and thought provoking." Jessica Irena Smith
