Stories of your Life and others by Ted Chiang.

Eight speculative, sci-fi stories. An excellent compilation of short stories, I liked most of them. ❤💙💜💖 

1. Tower of Babylon -let's climb the tower and meet god. It was okay.

2. Understand - man develops Superintelligence after an accident. Did he ceased to be human? Excellent. 

3. Division by Zero - a mathematician goes mad when she discovers flaws in mathematics. Liked it.

4. Story of your Life - sweet and engaging. What would you do if you could remember your future? Aliens and linguistics. Wonderful.

5. Seventy-two Letters - boring.

6. The Evolution of Human Science - normal humans are not the ones creating knowledge anymore. It was Okay. 

7. Hell is the Absence of god - a world where angels visit earth to cure or kill people. Liked it. 

8. Liking what you see: A documentary - excellent, thought provoking. A world where people can switch off their abilities to see beauty.
