    “Book Descriptions: Ryan David Ginsberg bursts onto the literary scene with this hauntingly beautiful collection of satirical and speculative tales. From extraterrestrials observing Earth to human beings navigating dark, dystopian futures shaped by technology, capitalism, and authoritarianism, each story offers sharp, thought-provoking commentary on the state of our nation.

    With a blend of dark humor and shattering insight, this collection takes readers on a compelling journey through the absurdities and shortcomings of modern life and the near future. As an added bonus, this collection concludes with the first three chapters of Ginsberg’s (hopeful) debut novel, In the Algorithm We Trust.

    Author Bio:

    RYAN DAVID GINSBERG is a writer of fiction and poetry, currently working on his debut novel. He lives in the Central Valley of California with his wife, three dogs, and a bougainvillea bonsai tree, named Boogey, which is currently blossoming.



    Extra Blurb:

    Within these stories, you will meet a woman who must auction her unborn baby's rights away; a twelve-year-old boy who suddenly finds himself in the middle of a war; an extraterrestrial being sent to Earth to determine whether or not humans are worthy of an invitation to the Confederation of the Cosmos; a mother who sends her child to school in a bulletproof vest; an old man who has only two months to live; a genius who strives to eradicate sadness from the world; a young girl impregnated by force in a state where abortion is outlawed; a grandmother teaching her granddaughter about the origins of the universe; a teacher who fights against the censors of her local school; a PhD candidate whose worst nightmare is recorded by dozens and posted online for millions; an artist seeking fame in a world where all are famous; and a sneak peek at the author's (hopeful) debut novel, In The Algorithm We Trust.”
