5.0

A much stronger story collection than Cursed Bunny, Your Utopia is filled with stories that focuses on technology, dystopia, immortality, and humanity with the absurdity, humor, and strangely emotional brevity Bora Chung expertly entwines. You will get emotional about lonely robots, hold your breath as a linguistics specialist fights off a horde of space cannibals, and contemplate on the nature of humanity and what it means to achieve it. 
The End of the Voyage, Maria Gratia Plena, Your Utopia, and To Meet Her are my personal favorites, but no story falls short here, each so engaging I wish there was more.
