An Electric Literature Best Short Story Collection of 2024 " Kurdistan +100: Stories from a Future State imagines a freer future for Kurds, one that sees independence as a possibility by 2046--a century after Kurds last had independence through the Kurdish Republic of Mahabad. Exploring subjects such as eco-activism, drone warfare, and retroactive social justice, this anthology of stories writes against the boundaries of what's possible." -- Electric Literature "A brilliant idea for an anthology. Futurism is one of SF's most important tools, allowing--even compelling--writers and readers to look at the present from a new angle in order to imagine the future." --The Morning Star "There is unity to be found in the cause. The questions of how much SF can, does, or should seek to influence reality are eternal and vexed but an anthology like Kurdistan +100 makes you hope that in the end, something might change." --Locus Magazine "The Kurdish spirit and yearning for self-independence and autonomy cannot be extinguished, and this spirit is displayed beautifully in the anthology Kurdistan +100: Stories from a Future Republic. To read an anthology of Kurdish stories in the English language makes this an immediate treasure.

" --The New Arab "Before we can begin to speculate on what a truly alternative future might look like, we must first find ways to reckon with the past. Kurdistan +100 is a landmark step along the way." --The Markaz Review "Whenever and however a future Kurdish nation might come to pass, the stories in this collection remain: to be read, re-read, and remembered." --M Lynx Qualey.
