About the Book

What are the stories we need to survive? In ten days, the last spaceship is leaving for a new planet. Some of us will stay on Earth. How do we decide? #TeamEarth. Once upon a time, the oceans were full of fish and the forests dark with brambles. Seb read about it in a book of fairy tales, and memory means hope. #TeamShip. Adaptation means knowing when to walk away. Jay is ready. So their ex, Seb, shows up on the dance floor, T-minus-10. What's the harm in one last dance? What if the stories themselves are evolving? Told in margin notes, posters, letters scrawled on napkins, and six retellings of classic fairy tales, What A Fish Looks Like gathers the stories of a queer community co-creating one another through the strange landscapes of climate change, wondering who is going to love us when there are not, in fact, plenty of fish in the sea. And now this book belongs to you.

Review :
"Lyrical, resonant, weirdly wonderful, wildly inventive." - Karen Joy Fowler, NYT Bestselling author of Booth "Kaleidoscopic and fearlessly innovative, What a Fish Looks Like shatters the boundaries of climate fiction. It's a fierce, tender testament to the power of love, memory, and chosen community in the face of collapse. The book invents a new language for what it feels like to grieve a dying world, and to imagine something radically different in its place." - Kate Folk, author of Sky Daddy and Out There "From the dedication to the last word, this book is unexpected and brilliant - a deeply queer and riotously joyful lament for our world, so wildly creative, original, and unrestrained it makes the care and artistry with which it's been weaved seem effortless. What a Fish Looks Like is one of the most special and memorable short story collections I have ever read." - Natalia Theodoridou, Nebula and World Fantasy Award winning author of Sour Cherry "Beker's writing ... has a beautifully caustic energy to it, a rapid-fire delivery that brings a hint of humor with an edge. We can never get enough." - The Racket "Delightfully odd." - Locus Magazine
