  • Teddy And Roosevelt: Two misfit boys strike up an unlikely friendship in the shadow of President Roosevelt.
  • The Hanging Man: Patrons ignore a dead homeless man hanging in the corner of a posh art gallery opening.
  • Never Enough (Until You Earn It): Two African refugees make their way to Europe and are provided "basic income."
  • Drag Brunch: Hannah's gay friend is excluded from her bachelorette party.
  • What We Talk About When We Talk About Reincarnation: A gay couple, and a trans couple, get together for drinks and try to figure out what it means to be a man/woman.
  • The Draft: Society forces all babies to be born, but creates a lottery system requiring all men to care for the offspring.
  • The Human Experience: A married couple negotiates the genetic future of their unborn child.
  • The Crate: Two women escape from a country that forces equal treatment to one that encourages differences, and find both have their issues.
  • As You Wish: An elderly woman finds a trunk of tattered stuffed animals and makes a promise to fix them all.


Reviews ★★★★★
“With Science fiction we can explore other galaxies and alien conflicts, but with philosophical fiction we can explore other minds and ethical conflicts. Let this book take you on a Phi-Fi adventure.”
— William Irwin, Ph.D. - Philosophy Professor, King's College

“After Dinner Conversation has taken up the initiative to write themed collections of short stories that fit focused ethics courses – say, a course on bioethics, AI ethics, Tech ethics etc. These collections can offer a spine for such courses or individual stories could be added to a course as illustrative material to stimulate discussion. The stories are lively and engaging and followed by a set of questions to start classroom discussion. Also, outside of educational contexts, the stories will work nicely to stimulate conversation in families, elder hostels, youth clubs, or book groups.”
— Luc Bovens, Ph.D. - Philosophy Professor, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
