Asian SF writer, Ted Chiang, returns!
I love Chiang's brilliant short-story collection, Stories of Your Life, and completely bugged out when I stumbled upon word about his new 83-page book. The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate, from what I've researched, follows Fuwaad ibn Abbas as a merchant who tells his story to the Caliph. He tells three stories in this book-length work that should be dope. I wish this guy wrote more, more, more.
Why can't putting out books be like putting out records?
