2024 online short SFF part 3
Feb. 28th, 2025 09:02 pmThe Brotherhood of Montague St. Video, Thomas Ha, Clarkesworld. This is very reference-rich and I'm probably only catching part of that (I haven't even read Tlon, Uqbar, and I barely remember Fahrenheit 451 and had to read a summary) but I think it's also a strong story entirely on its own without all that? Memory and filters and the work of wrapping up the loose ends of a parent's life. Novelette.
A Brief Oral History of the El Zopilote Dock, Alaya Dawn Johnson, Clarkesworld. Thoughts on what the next Underground Railroad might look like. Novelette. Thanks to![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
