Greyframe and Trueframe: Collapsed Narratives is a mind-bending collection of humorous science fiction short stories where reality glitches, identities rewrite themselves, and the algorithm never stops watching.
In this latest dark humor short story collection, Cody Poston pushes speculative absurdism to its breaking point. You'll meet Barbie after her licensing rights expire, gods running a failing corporate office, HR departments enforcing weaponized empathy, and workers trapped in a perfected office reality created by a neural-hijacking tech experiment. Each story blends sci-fi humor, literary satire, and political and social absurdity-a chaotic cocktail for readers who love their fiction smart, strange, and uncomfortably funny.
Inside these pages, the world is constantly collapsing in on itself-and laughing while it does.
Perfect for fans of satirical sci-fi short stories, absurdist speculative fiction, and sharp, character-driven literary satire fiction. If you've ever felt like your job was a simulation or your memories weren't quite yours, welcome back to Dystopocon.
