Speculative Fiction

As our reality becomes more of a dystopia, you may wonder what counts as fantasy anymore. Collapse, resurrection, and everything in between are entirely possible. The absurd has become a part of the everyday, be it a head popping out of a toilet or slugs that change their sex. This class will explore the fantastical, uncanny, scientific/technological, and fiction that otherwise tests the bounds of human reality.
