Unbroken

- Reading
- Try one story at a time, then compare how different authors handle their characters and genres. This can help you pause if a particular story or scene calls for discussion.
- Themes
- Disability and representation: The anthology follows disabled teenagers, including teens of colour and of diverse genders and orientations, and aims to move beyond familiar stereotypes. The collection's stated aim is to reclaim narratives and identities, but this does not establish how each story portrays disability.
- Worth knowing
- The story premises include interstellar war and a dating debacle; the collection is also characterised as sometimes heart-stopping. The intensity and detail of these scenes are unclear.
