A new collection from the author of Nebula Award winning A Song for a New Day and Philip K Dick Award winning Sooner or Later Everything Falls Into the Sea.

A half-remembered children's TV show. A hotel that shouldn't exist. A mysterious ballad. A living flag. Nebula and Hugo Award-winning author Sarah Pinsker's second collection brings together a seemingly eclectic group of stories that unite behind certain themes: her touchstones of music and memory are joined by stories about secret subversions and hidden messages in art. Her stories span and transcend genre labels, looking for the truth in strange situations from possible futures to impossible pasts.

Sooner or Later Everything Falls into the Sea is one of the most anticipated sf&f collections of recent years. Pinsker has shot like a star across the firmament with stories multiply nominated for awards as well as Sturgeon and Nebula award wins. The baker's dozen stories gathered here (including a new, previously unpublished story) turn readers into travelers to the past, the future, and explorers of the weirder points of the present. The journey is the thing as Pinsker weaves music, memory, technology, history, mystery, love, loss, and even multiple selves on generation ships and cruise ships, on highways and high seas, in murder houses and treehouses. They feature runaways, fiddle-playing astronauts, and retired time travelers; they are weird, wired, hopeful, haunting, and deeply human. They are often described as beautiful but Pinsker also knows that the heart wants what the heart wants and that is not always right, or easy. Praise for Sarah Pinsker: "Sarah Pinsker's 'Wind Will Rove' is a story about the folk process, and memory, and the occasional importance of forgetting. . . . Thoughtful and quite moving." —Rich Horton, Locus Magazine "The last and best story in the issue, in my view, is the piece by Sarah Pinsker." —Alastair Reynolds "A bittersweet tale containing elements of the fantastic, but at the same time, very much rooted in real and relatable loss and pain. There is a beautiful subtlety to this story. It never hits the reader over the head with the speculative element, leaving much of that side of the story between the lines. Pinsker handles the sub- text so deftly that two full stories present themselves to the reader, even though only one is fully outlined on the page." — A. C. Wise, SF Signal "Beautiful, bittersweet tale. Just perfect.” — SF Revu "This is my favorite Pinsker story to date — a thoughtful, subtle piece about the lures and traps of memory." — Rachel Swirsky, Locus "The fine folks at Uncanny just published their first ever (short) novella in #15, and it’s wonderful. Sarah Pinsker’s story of a convention — SarahCon — for Sarah’s from thousands of alternate reality might be my favorite novella of the last several years, to be honest. It’s smart and funny and thoughtful in perfect proportions. It was enchanting from page one, and it’s a story and concept that has been often on my mind ever since I read it." — SF Bluestocking About the Author Sarah Pinsker's stories have won the Nebula and Sturgeon awards. Her fiction has been published in magazines such as Asimov’s Science Fiction, Strange Horizons, Fantasy & Science Fiction, Lightspeed, and Uncanny, in numerous year’s bests, and translated into Chinese, Spanish, French, and Italian, among other languages. She is a singer/songwriter and her fourth album is forthcoming. She lives in Baltimore, Maryland. @sarahpinsker
