Literary Cabaret: Science Fiction Readings – Chapter 3
Hosted by Ai Jiang
The grand finale — visionary worlds and unforgettable stories to close the series.
Conclude the series with an evening of visionary worlds at Literary Cabaret, part of the Science Fiction Residency at Banff Centre. This final chapter showcases original, genre-bending works by our residency writers, exploring new worlds, alternate futures, and the boundaries of possibility.
Hosted by Ai Jiang – Chinese-Canadian author and Ignyte, Bram Stoker, and Nebula Award winner, as well as a finalist for the Hugo, Astounding, Locus, Aurora, and BFSA Awards. Jiang is the author of Linghun and I AM AI, with her novella A Palace Near the Wind forthcoming in 2025 from Titan Books. Her work appears in F&SF, The Dark, The Masters Review, and more. She will guide the evening, read from her own work, and share the stage with the residency’s writers.
