_Rewired: The Post-Cyberpunk Anthology_, edited by James Patrick Kelly and John Kessel.
Somehow I managed to read all but one of these stories previously; luckily, the exception was a Michael Swanwick piece. I am usually fond of Swanwick, and this one was no disappointment. The conceit is that all the stories are reactions to or deconstructions of various cyberpunk memes. I suspect that they are all pretty good because they were previously sold on their own merits, rather than commissioned for this volume.
