NATIONAL BESTSELLER • ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR • Nine stunningly original, provocative, and poignant stories—two published for the very first time—all from the mind of the incomparable author of Stories of Your Life and Others

Tackling some of humanity’s oldest questions along with new quandaries only he could imagine, these stories will change the way you think, feel, and see the world. They are Ted Chiang at his best: profound, sympathetic, revelatory.

Ted Chiang tackles some of humanity’s oldest questions along with new quandaries only he could imagine.

In “The Merchant and the Alchemist’s Gate,” a portal through time forces a fabric seller in ancient Baghdad to grapple with past mistakes and second chances. In “Exhalation,” an alien scientist makes a shocking discovery with ramifications that are literally universal. In “Anxiety Is the Dizziness of Freedom,” the ability to glimpse into alternate universes necessitates a radically new examination of the concepts of choice and free will.

love the stories, but the audio quality, especially for the last one, hurts my ears!

Bad audio quality

For those with active imaginations, these short stories will leave you wanting more. If you’re ok with cliff hangers, this book of short stories is still highly enjoyable. The ideals in the stories had me pondering for hours and imagining my own endings and stories. Wish I could read more of them.

Short story gold

Mind blowing and beautifully written. I love how the author develops those remarkable stories about scientific ideas and brings them to life so that even a person not so into scientific theory starts to understand. Chapeau!

My absolute favorite in 2026!

I am so disappointed with the speaker for the story called the life cycle of software objects! whilst the story has great emotional potential, the speaker flattens it completely. it feels like a lacking tool has been used to generate the voice.

poor speaker

I bought this book based on the good reviews it received. Frankly though, I cannot share them.
Most of these stories aren't actually stories; they are premises for stories. Most don't have a real storyline. They're just elaborately written out sci-fi ideas with a lot of potential, but without any plot beyond the anecdotal. I found that pretty tiresome and ended up fast-forwarding to the next one only to find that it was just as skeletal as the one before.

Just a premise doesn't make a story.
