A bit of a delay as Ive been reading the new Branderson's secret project excerpts.
Anyway -
Story Of Your Life *****
I see why they added the conflict and more of "otherness" to the heptapods in the adaptation.
Still, great idea, lovely execution and a lot of tidbits to look for when you know what to look for - eg. the story of the three bears.

Exhalation *****
Mindblowing. Might take your breath away, eventually. (Ill see myself out, sorry.)
The closing lines are almost Enter Shikaresque:
"Though I am long dead as you read this, Explorer, I offer to you a valediction. Contemplate the marvel that is existence, and rejoice that you are able to do so. I feel I have the right to tell you this because, as I am inscribing these words, I am doing the same."

Hell is the Absence of God ***
Interesting idea of angelic visitations continuing on to modern times.
Not really the fan of the ending, but that may be just my heatheny.

Seventy-Two Letters ***
I liked Strattons fight for automatons to easen workload and burdens of regular people, still sometimes it had an odd whiff of oldtimey patriarchy bullshit and eugenics. Both were fortunatelly addressed in the last part. In the end, the solution and ending were kinda elegant.
