Introduction

A list of short stories that spun my expectations, some that I revisit to tighten my writing eye and some that bring me right back to a certain shade of mood. Some of these stories (such as the Octavia E. Butler one) formed an early part of my reading life and research back when I was doing my MA in literature and posthumanism. Others I’ve discovered through questing for stories that reinvigorate architectural plains, from Jayant Kaikini’s explorations of spatial idenitities in Mumbai to YZ Chin’s KFC vistas. Seeing all of them together has given me some excitement, similar to gathering up personalities with a broom.
