    Ted Chiang
    Exhalation

    2024 | Nakladatelství Bohemian Ventures, spol. s r.o.

    'Ted Chiang is one of the most exciting writers in science fiction . . . These parables are filled with hope and humanism.' - The Daily Telegraph

    From the acclaimed author of Stories of Your Life and Others - the basis for the Academy Award-winning film Arrival - comes a groundbreaking second collection of short… fiction.

    'Will make you think, grapple with big questions, and feel more human. The best kind of science fiction' - Barack Obama

    A portal through time forces a fabric-seller in ancient Baghdad to grapple with past errors and the temptation of second chances; an alien scientist makes a shocking discovery with ramifications not just for his own people, but for all of reality; a newfound ability to glimpse into alternate universes forces a radical re-examination of the concepts of choice and free will.

    In Exhalation, Ted Chiang addresses the most fundamental of issues - What is the nature of the universe? What does it mean to be human? - alongside others that no one else has even imagined. And, each in its own way, the stories prove that complex and thoughtful science fiction can rise to new heights of beauty, meaning, and compassion.
