"Ten Thousand Light-Years From Home" by James Tiptree Jr

Details

I came across this collection of short stories when embarking on the impossible task of trying to find an author that hits the high standard of Ted Chiang, and found many recommendations of Tiptree giving that same human feeling to the tales, even though she often writes about beings that are very much not human and I thought aha, I've found the last book for the year!

This sounds like a very eclectic mix of stories, from an aulder era of science fiction so I'm sure it will provoke the usual lively chatter.

Written under the pseudonym James Tiptree Jr., the pioneering and outlandish tales of Alice B. Sheldon are some of the greatest science fiction short stories of the twentieth century, telling of dystopian chases, alien sex and the loneliness of the universe.
