We’re thrilled to share the cover and table of contents for Embodied Exegesis: Transfeminine Cyberpunk Futures, a new anthology edited by Ann LeBlanc—publishing August 27th with Neon Hemlock.
Embodied Exegesis is an anthology of cyberpunk and posthuman stories written by transfem authors. The included stories explore the limits of the genre: gender-affirming cybernetics, the literary surveillance state, transcendent hive-minds, a transgender coffee machine, and weaponized shitposts. The future of cyberpunk is trans, so stay tuned for an anthology of wild and weird stories exploring the limits of technological transformations of our bodies and minds.
