Desde tiempos inmemoriales, la humanidad ha estado fascinada por el futuro e imagina el mundo del mañana como una tierra que a veces es distópica y a veces utópica. "Futuro Salvaje" muestra cinco escenarios futuros completamente diferentes que son tan atractivos como impactantes. Cada relato presenta un género específico y, por lo tanto, una perspectiva diferente de lo que nos espera. Y entonces, todo lo que queda es hacerse una sola pregunta: ¿algún día la Tierra se vengará de todo lo que le hemos hecho?

It’s a story you may think you know - an aging baseball coach is challenged by the very boy he took in and raised. But in this near future world, "smart” houses talk and listen, and - privy as they are to the secret life of the household - family life gets interesting. Creepy and funny, unsettling and entertaining, this is a story that stands on its own even as it proves the perfect follow up to Gish Jen’s critically acclaimed novel The Resisters.
