A fine collection of stories exploring people and their various desires :D Love that it is consciously not heterocentric; and really it’s the stories that are from/by/for “sexual deviants” that really resonated with me, also the better written ones.
Roxane Gay, Garth Greenwell, Kim Fu, Carmen Maria Machado (dazzling period story!) and Zeyn Joukhadar astound as always. I also enjoyed Trust by Larissa Pham and Impact Play by Peter Mountford. The rest, not to say “bad writing,” did not land very well with me and fell flat (or otherwise to the non sequitur lit fic side).
