Synopsis
This collection of eleven stories blends feminist critique, intertextuality, and science fiction to create an irreverent look at our world. Explore a dystopian future where women are 'rehabilitated' at an erotic amusement park, or witness a programmer building a time machine in a climate-ravaged Balkans. Asja Bakić uses speculative and weird elements to playfully examine artificial intelligence, gender fluidity, and environmental issues, presenting pleasure as both inviting and perilous.
