Theme: Radical Empathy
“Our theme this time (unpremeditated, as always) is radical empathy. We have an understanding woman in the spring of stupidity, genetically-engineered creatures with psychic powers, a virtual reality that offers life to the dying, a man who burns to be loved, two close sisters who get even closer, and a man with a gift that’s driving him nuts.”
