The SFT of Rio Johan


I’ve recently read two excellent, hilarious stories by Indonesian author Rio Johan (listed below). They are part of a larger collection, not yet translated into English, called Genetically Modified Fruit, about a bio-engineering corporation that produces exotic fruits…with some very peculiar consequences (like world-dominating cherries!!). Hopefully, someone will translate and publish this entire collection, if only because Rachel demands it.

Here are the two stories that are already in English:

“Fruit maps,” translated by Lara Norgaard (Asymptote, 2019).

“Mysteries of Visiocherries,” translated by the author (Samovar, 2021).
