Hi –
Looking for fiction that is comprised of short stories that are linked or nested to create more than the sum of their parts. I lean sci-fi but not exclusively.
Examples I've enjoyed in this genre include:
Ghostwritten, Cloud Atlas – David Mitchell (Bone Clocks also has this structure, but less overt)
Other examples where there seem to be short stories running in parallel, though the characters' paths may intertwine:
A visit from the good squad, Candy House – Jennifer Egan
Mountain and the sea – Ray Nayler
Dervish House, River of Gods – Ian McDonald
Void Star – Zachary Mason
Many thanks!

I love short stories that are linked! Not sci-fi, but I really enjoyed That Time I Loved You by Carrianne Leung.
