Reading Exhalationis like standing outside on a clear, starry night. With boundless empathy, curiosity, and wisdom, Chiang asks all the important questions that come with being human. “From Ted Chiang’s singular mind comes another innovative and mind-bending collection of short stories. This is the real thing.” -Blake Crouch, author of Dark Matter You will inhale Exhalation in a single, stunned sitting, because true genius doesn’t come along nearly as often as advertised. His name deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Carver, Poe, Borges, and Kafka. “Ted Chiang has no contemporary peers when it comes to the short story form. “Ted Chiang writes with such a matter-of-fact grace and visionary power that one simply takes on faith that his worlds and his characters exist, whether they are human or robot or parrot he is the rare author who makes me feel, also, that he believes in his readers, in our integrity and our imagination.” -Karen Russell, author of Orange World
“Ted Chiang’s stories are lean, relentless, and incandescent.” -Colson Whitehead, author of The Underground Railroad
