Love After the End

History of the New World by Adam Garnet Jones

She frowned at me. "Of course not. But—humans have always been special. Through these last years it didn't make sense that we might fail to find a solution. We've always been smart enough to think and build our way out of anything." 

"Or we've been failing as long as we can remember, and all of that ingenuity is a symptom of failure.”

Singlehandedly redeeming short story collections for me. Energizing & gorgeous

This exciting and groundbreaking fiction anthology showcases a number of new and emerging 2SQ (Two-Spirit and queer Indigenous) writers from across Turtle Island. These visionary authors show how queer Indigenous communities can bloom and thrive through utopian narratives that detail the vivacity and strength of 2SQness throughout its plight in the maw of settler colonialism’s histories. Here, readers will discover bio-engineered AI rats, transplanted trees in space, the rise of a 2SQ resistance camp, a primer on how to survive Indigiqueerly, virtual reality applications, motherships at sea, and the very bending of space-time continuums queered through NDN time. Love after the End demonstrates the imaginatively queer Two-Spirit futurisms we have all been dreaming of since 1492. Contributors include Darcie Little Badger, Mari Kurisato, Kai Minosh Pyle, David Alexander Robertson, and jaye simpson.

“History of the New World” was so good that I had to look up the author just to find out I’ve read his only book.

anthologies tend to be pretty average on a whole for me but i really enjoyed this one. my favorite stories were "history of the new world" by adam garnet jones, "how to survive the apocalypse for native girls" by kai minosh pyle,  and "story for a bottle" by darcie little badger.
