Power to Yield and Other Stories — Bogi Takacs

COMPLEX COMMUNITY​Power to Yield is a collection of speculative tales exploring gender identity, neurodivergence, and religion from author Bogi Takács, who deftly blends sci-fi, fantasy, and weird fiction. An AI child discovers Jewish mysticism. A student can give no more blood to their semi-sentient apartment and plans their escape. A candidate is rigorously evaluated for their ability to be a liaison to alien newcomers. A young magician gains perspective from her time as a plant. A neurodivergent woman tries to survive on a planetoid where thoughts shape reality...​These are stories about the depth and breadth of the human condition, and beyond, identifying future possibilities of conflict and cooperation, identity and community.
