Why Aren't You Dead Yet?: A Disability In Dystopia Anthology

A mother donates her fat for money. A woman must buy hormones in secret. A young man survives surgery when he wasn't meant to.Sixteen disabled and chronically ill authors challenge our ideas of who is allowed to survive the end of the world in stories that are by turns visceral, heartbreaking, romantic, and at times, gooey. From deeply speculative to almost too real, these stories not only twist dystopian tropes and narratives on their head, but actually let disabled characters live.From editor Ella T. Holmes who brought us the Amazon Bestselling Artifice & Access anthology, comes this heart pounding disability in dystopian anthology. Why Aren't You Dead Yet? continues the project of uplifting some of the most marginalised voices in publishing.While Artifice & Access boldly proclaimed "we belong!" This time we're screaming "you can't get rid of us!"Stories include:Cat and Mouse by Ashley N.Y.
