How many of you have read Yevgeny Zamyatin's We (1920)? Or Le Guin's The Dispossessed? Or Butler's Parable of the Sower? Some of our number really love these sorts of dystopian/utopian tales for the powerful conversations they can create.

We really dug this piece by Simon Jimenez in @tordotcom on the process and history that went into making the map for The Spear Cuts Through Water. Especially the part about how maps can reproduce cultural biases. Solid stuff. #fantasy #books https://t.co/xFRPiVTWHj
