As an incubator of the future, Los Angeles has long mesmerized writers from Aldous Huxley to Octavia E. Butler.

So, bestselling author Denise Hamilton commissioned fourteen stories (including one of her own) and did exactly that. In Speculative Los Angeles, some of the city’s most prophetic and diverse voices reimagine the metropolis in very different ways.
