Exhalation is one of my favorite books of any genre and Chiang is one of my favorite authors. I love listening to his interviews as well. It's very clear how the person Ted Chiang and the author Ted Chiang exist in the same space. For some authors, that connection is less clear.

Similarly, Bojack Horseman is one of my favorite shows. I had never looked into its creators and had no idea the creator also wrote short stories. I am now very excited to read this. Thanks!
