Synopsis
Here are the best queer speculative fiction stories of 2020, selected by series editor Charles Payseur and guest editor C.L. Clark. This anthology showcases sixteen queer science fiction, fantasy and horror short stories published in a difficult year.
Within these pages: A trans woman growing plums on a distant moon. Queer shape shifters falling in love despite brutal intolerance. Video game urban legends. Magic onions. Art history. Archaeology. The tropes of "classic" movies dashed and subverted. The fragile freedom found in online gaming. True crime podcasts. A non-binary house who refused to eat children.
We're honored to amplify these incredible stories for a wider audience.
