In Clelia Farris' mind-bending tales, you'll find captivating characters with elusive identities like Kieser, who longs to transform himself through horrific procedures in ""Creative Surgery,"" or Yuliano (""Secret Enemy""), a man with no aesthetic taste, or Gabola, engaged in the battle of a lifetime against the expropriation of the Little Tuvu Hill. With dry and polished prose, like the stones of her native Sardinia, Clelia Farris takes us on adventures among the ruins of a future marred by climate change (""A Day to Remember"") and in a haunting prison inhabited by the enigmatic figure of ""Rebecca."" Collected and translated into English for the first time, these seven stories represent some of the greatest works from one of Italy's best science fiction authors.
