About this listen

Sita Dulip has missed her flight out of Chicago. But instead of listening to garbled announcements in the airport, she discovers a method of bypassing the crowds at the desks, a nasty lunch, whimpering children, their punitive parents, and the blue plastic chairs bolted to the floor: she changes planes—literally. Sita discovers entire planes of existence and visits societies not found on Earth—bizarre societies that share similarities with Earth's cultures and sometimes open doors into the alien.

charming enough short stories, but nothing crazy. i like how it is written as a kind of study on these fictional cultures, but was expecting more continuity or some kind of overarching story, which i found lacking.
excellent performance by the voice actor here

nice enough short stories
