The Kisah Futures Anthology features stories that discuss plausible future, post-pandemic scenarios. Photo: Think City Can truth be stranger than fiction? Perhaps in a world gone mad, the lines between truth and fiction are sometimes blurred. Certainly, with the stories in the Kisah Futures Anthology, anything is possible. Utopian and dystopian stories both make an appearance in this compilation of stories. There is time travel, robots and holographic transmissions, but also tales of delivery people, frontliners and vaccines. A fan of science fiction, romance or adventure? You will find something here. “Most anthologies are carefully curated, sitting within specific bookseller genres, whereas this one is as ‘majmuk’ and multifarious as our population. What also makes this anthology special is that the stories are written by our people - Malaysians and Malaysian residents - from all walks of life, says Maya Tan, Think City brand and communications lead.
