In the stories of Michael Bishop (winner of the Nebula and Locus award) there is always something experimental and intense that makes his stories always reach us in one way or another; He writes in such a way that the barriers between genres blur and cease to make sense. In "in the suburbs of destiny" we have perhaps the best and possibly most brilliant of his anthologies. 15 stories that take us to destinations as diverse as attending a Japanese ritual suicide in the deep south of the United States in in the suburbs of destiny. To attend the death of Saint Augustine and the reunion with his lost son in the fascinating Uchronia, this is how I remember Carthage. We contemplate the computerized judgment of Judas in the near future in I, Iscariot, and the end of the world by butterflies in snapshots of the butterfly plague. But we will also find in these pages snake handlers, cats that expose the theory of chaos or explorations of microcosmic universes. A chilling, metaphorical, and emotional literature for large minorities.
