Speculative fiction has lurked in the shadows of the literary scene for years while realism hogged the limelight. Now, as the natural and political spheres crumble around us, speculative fiction’s dystopian worlds don’t seem so different from our own.

Featuring Astrid Edwards, Michelle Tanmizi, Krissy Kneen, Pitchaya Sudbanthad, and Claire G. Coleman.
