Ken Liu’s The Paper Menagerie and Other Stories

“We are defined by the places we hold in the web of others’ lives.”

Wow. This book of short stories is so creative and beautifully written that I couldn’t put it down. Many stories have a sci-fi element, but in a completely relatable way. Common themes are time, love, memories, and creation. Definitely read the stories in order, as it is a wonderfully constructed book.
