Anthologies

A glimpse into the lives of others is a tantalising offer, and short stories give us such a window. A slice of someone's life - whether it be in a factory, on a road trip north, the unquestioned love between two people, a child's way of seeing or their passion for art - provides us an escape into their world or can serve as a mirror to our own inner lives. Within this anthology, sixteen brilliant writers allow us to imagine places and feelings we may not know but can seem all too familiar, touching our emotions with their imaginative tales.
