and Other Stories
by Geoff Ryman
Geoff Ryman writes about the other and leaves us dissected in the process. His stories are set in recognizable places - London, Cambodia, tomorrow - and feature men and women caught in recognizable situations (or technologies) and not sure which way to turn. They, we, should obviously choose what's right. But what if that's difficult? What will we do? What we should, or ...?
Paradise Tales builds on the success of his most recent novel, The King's Last Song, and on the two Cambodian stories included here, "The Last Ten Years of the Hero Kai" and "Pol Pot's Beautiful Daughter."
