Description

In a world with an uncertain future, do you imagine for the best - or worst-case scenario? Twelve writers tackle extreme utopias and dystopias - and the gray areas in between - in Biketopia, the fourth volume of the Bikes in Space series of feminist science fiction stories about bicycling. Whatever your own future or present reality, these stories will motivate and inspire you to envision something different... and maybe even better.

User reviews

LibraryThing member wunder
Yes, it really is dystopian/utopian SF with bicycles. In a few stories, the bikes are incidental, but in many of them the bikes are freedom. Not just a symbol of freedom, but an escape from danger or a path to safety that isn't dependent on gasoline or money or permission.

Well worth a read.
