An exciting science fiction collection that looks at what future communication might look like and how our shifting relationships with technology could change this most human of capabilities.
In Communications Breakdown, award-winning editor Jonathan Strahan asks some of the world’s best science fiction writers to consider how the very idea of communication might change in the futureRich terrain for speculation, this anthology brims with human stories about the future face of our age-old need to connect.
