50 authors, 50 science fiction stories shorter than novels
Like the list, big fan of Borges, Egan and Chiang, but very surprised to see no Lem. He has to be on a list like that. A Perfect Vacuum is brilliant and the Cyberiad is a great candidate as well.Another thing I'm surprised to not see on the list is Chinese short-story sci-fi, there's been a lot of great stuff coming out of the country in recent years much of it translated by Ken Liu.Folding Beijing by Hao Jingfang is great and free to read[1], there's The Wandering Earth by Liu Cixin whose Three Body books got a lot of attention, and there's another collection called Invisible Planets, which has a few good stories by Chen Qiufan. He's also written a very good novel called Waste Tide.[1]https://uncannymagazine.com/article/folding-beijing-2/
