Episode 111 : Becky Chambers on Queering Science Fiction (and taking a Yoda approach to our trash)


Listen Later

Becky Chambers took our hearts and cracked them wide open with her Wayfarers series, starting with THE LONG WAY TO A SMALL ANGRY PLANET. And in 2019, she released the novella of space exploration and discovery, TO BE TAUGHT IF FORTUNATE. We have a lot of feelings, some of which we are probably *too willing* to share on the 'cast as we talk with Becky about science, queering SFF, and why her books always have such deliciously long titles. Speaking with her was brain-meltingly awesome, and we are *so* excited to share this week's episode with you, our listeners!
You will not find Becky Chambers on social media (have we mentioned that she is extremely smart yet?) but you can check in with her upcoming and ongoing work at www.otherscribbles.com. You can find her books wherever good books are sold. They are:
