Fun fact: it got made into the film Arrival.

    This is making me want to go back and read them again. They seem like the kind of stories I might get even more out of the second time around.

      I think most of Chaing’s work really needs multiple reads. Especially Story of Your Life, because of obvious reasons. Having the context of the full picture makes the smaller aspects fuller.

        I decided to watch Arrival tonight. It’s great so far! I’m glad they captured the sense of awe and uncertainty well. I’m about halfway through (intermission now - taking a snack break).
