i preferred cursed bunny which was more horror/surrealism than this which was a bit black mirror….. also super disappointed to learn bora chung does not find communist utopia worth her time. that’s really disappointing

 short story collection that incorporates science-fiction and dystopian, from the perspective of the robot, car, monitor and elevator, this book is quirky, weird and extraordinary. didn’t expect I would enjoy and love this book more than Bunny. i related to and felt more emotion in each story, i enjoy every story although they are weird.

An interesting and thought-provoking collection of some of the craziest or grossest stories I’ve read. The stories are each captivating and difficult to put down. I preferred some over others but could absolutely see myself going back to read this whole collection as well as individual pieces.
