Invisible Planets
Note
a valuable tour of the varied and impossible to define "Chinese science fiction".
the ghost like stories were definitely a new type of story for me to experience. the conversation between two spirits blew me away as they reflected on strange stories they remembered. each story was a sentence or two and worthy of a science fiction novel behind it. yikes!
invisible planets and taking care of god were striking in different ways.
the essays at the end were a surprise and a good reminder of what it takes to write science fiction, why we write and read it and why pinning down the genre in a y meaningful way may be besides the point.
