About
In a mind-bending MITeen anthology, ten top YA authors use emerging technologies to explore startling new realities.

Ten top authors of young adult fiction imagine what the world could be through the lens of technologies emerging today.

In a society where the modification industry has transformed how humans look, sound, and interact, a nonbinary teen braves the 'reinvention' room to accept a gift from the dead. In an accidental city in space, a young apprentice holds neighborhoods together with braided carbon filaments, until distraction and inspiration arrive in the wake of a visitor. Entitlement-fueled drug use alters the landscape of white privilege, a robot remembers the earth, and corporate 'walkers' stroll for unknown subscribers--until one hacks the system.

In tales buzzing with possibility, hope, innovation, anger, and tenderness, Tasting Light offers a dazzling challenge to connect with open minds, hearts, and senses in a fast-changing world.
