From the acclaimed author of Stories of Your Life and Others comes a ground-breaking new collection of short fiction: nine stunningly original, provocative, and poignant stories. These are tales that tackle some of humanity's oldest questions along with new quandaries only Ted Chiang could imagine. In 'The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate,' a portal through time forces a fabric seller in ancient Baghdad to grapple with past mistakes and second chances. In 'Exhalation,' an alien scientist makes a shocking discovery with ramifications that are literally universal. In 'Anxiety Is the Dizziness of Freedom,' the ability to glimpse alternate universes necessitates a radically new examination of the concepts of choice and free will. Including stories being published for the first time as well as some of his rare and classic uncollected work, EXAHALATION is Ted Chiang at his best: profound, sympathetic--revelatory." [jacket copy] "Ted Chiang writes with such a matter-of-fact grace and visionary power that one simply takes on faith that his worlds and his characters exist, whether they are human or robot or parrot; he is the rare author who makes me feel, also, that he believes in his readers, in our integrity and our imagination."--Karen Russell. "Ted Chiang has no contemporary peers when it comes to the short story form. His name deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Carver, Poe, Borges, and Kafka. Every story is a universe. Every story is a diamond. You will inhale EXHALATION in a single, stunned sitting, because true genius doesn't come along nearly as often as advertised. This is the real thing."--Blake Crouch. "Ted Chiang's stories are lean, relentless, and incandescent."--Colson Whitehead. "There's so much excellence in the labyrinth of ideas in EXHALATION--what truly astounds is the tenderness that pulses through each story like a heartbeat. When I read Ted Chiang, I am reminded not only of what might be, but what is: our own humanity, realized again and again through wonder, language, and empathy."--Aja Gabel. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp deckle edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a darkly-bright-starry jacket. Quite presentable & collectible.
