Here is a chapter (or a single story?) from "Kalpa Imperial", one of the most beautiful #fantasy #books I've ever read, by Argentinian writer Angélica #Gorodischer.
📚💙
It was #translated from Spanish by none other than Ursula K. #LeGuin.

What's the difference between #Mastodon and #Threads? Next time someone tells you they're both not-#Twitter and that's it, #recommend them to read this #article by @pluralistic. It's about #capitalism, #monopolies and the way #corporate #SocialMedia has locked us in their #VirtualSpaces, without right to appeal.

@Yukari I love his short stories and "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle". And magic realism is too narrow a label, I think.
