The title story of Stories of Your Life’s theme is like Solaris; contact with an unknowable alien entity.
My review of Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang is an eight-story SF short story collection. It was made into the movie Arrival. The title story explores the similar theme of first alien contact.
