Vaguely themed about hope in the ashes, mostly apocalyptic settings (or locally apocalyptic), with Madeline Ashby, Yoon Ha Lee, Karen Lord, and Martha Wells as the names I recognized. Lee’s use of AI to tailor manipulation of public opinion is likely to seem prescient; Wells offers a murder mystery driven by the cyborg/capitalist interface, though not a Murderbot story. ( ) Oddly, this did not take me to a better place. Some of the stories were downers, others more stopped than ended. All of the science fiction stories were better than the non-genre stories. Maybe SF authors have more experience at weaving a topic into a story. But none of the stories were five-star for me. The anthology is supposed to revolve around the Culture of Health idea from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. I couldn't see any common threads beyond "health" being part of the plots. I could give the whole thing 3.5 stars, but without a standout, I'm rounding down. For an anthology that really does take you to a better place (mostly), I recommend "Consolation Songs: Optimistic Speculative Fiction For A Time of Pandemic". https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/54327781-consolation-songs sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
