profiterole_reads: (Naruto Shippuuden - Sasuke and Naruto)
The French anthology Nos identités futures, celles qu'on imagine, celles qu'on espère was good, but a bit expensive for its length. It gathers only 6 short stories on the theme "Our future identities, the ones we're imagining, the ones we're hoping for."

I mostly recommend it for anyone who doesn't read long novels yet (kids, people studying French as a foreign language...). Based on the topic, I expected more utopian wordbuilding, but several authors went for post-apocalyptic backgrounds.

Here are the identities represented:
- a Muslim boy and a girl of Korean descent
- a girl and a boy, both with cerebral palsy
- a lesbian and a bisexual girl
- a French Guianese girl
- a neurodivergent mlm trans boy
- a woman of Maghrebi descent

Note that the last story, while being pro-trans, contains a casual mention of HP. *sighs*
