Flying Cups and Saucers cover

    Selected for their provocative takes on sexuality, these 13 gender-bending tales of outreé amour shock, amuse and call on basic human sympathy ... A fantasy-tinted look at human relationships and identity, this collection ... nimbly traces the charting of new territory.
    Publisher's Weekly

Science fiction and fantasy are the perfect medium for exploring the ways human interaction can be different – and that includes the ever-shifting landscape of the relationship between (perhaps among) the sexes (or should that be genders?).

In this book of stories singled out by the judges of the Tiptree Award, you'll find explorations of gender that far outstrip the ones in the everyday news and the talk shows. And more ways of looking at gender than you would think could fit into one book.

Includes stories by Kelley Eskridge, Eleanor Arnason, James Patrick Kelly, Ursula K. LeGuin, Ian McDonald, Carol Emshwiller, Graham Joyce & Peter F. Hamilton, L. Timmel Duchamp, R. Garcia y Robertson, Lisa Tuttle, Delia Sherman, and Ian R. MacLeod.
