Lesser Known Monsters of the 21st Century

I loved this collection's ability to evoke a feeling; the sense of lost opportunity, the frisson of sexual danger, the questioning imbalance in the face of gaslighting, murderous ennui, and the impossibility of conjuring a specific flavour without a sense of taste. While many of the stories project into a technological future, several tackled appearance vs reality in our current social media age.

All of it just there, tucked inside a slightly skewed world that never overstays its welcome.
