I read about half of the stories/essays, and just wasn’t really feeling them. I also didn’t understand a lot of them, but that could be a me problem. Here are the ones that I liked the most:
The Restaurant At The End of the Universe: Tai-Chi Mashed Taro by Anna Wu translated by Carmen Yiling

Cw: missing child, bullying, fire, death
I will say I was kind of expecting more actual non binary representation, I didn’t really see much of that. Also curious how many of the contributors are non binary because all but two use exclusively she/her, and of course pronouns ≠ gender (I’m a genderless she/her after all), but it still doesn’t seem very diverse within the non binary category (And for the two who used she/they, in their bios they only used she/her.. 🤔 to be fair idk if an editor wrote the bios or if everyone wrote their own, I assumed an editor).
