by Jane Yolen
First published 2015
This collection draws from the digital journal's second year, bringing together speculative fiction and poetry that moves between the everyday and the extraordinary. The anthology spans multiple voices and visions, from quantum mythology to edible religion, from harsh desert landscapes to waters that seek revenge. Writers explore love and identity through slipstream narratives that blur genre boundaries. The editors have assembled work that embraces both subtle weirdness and capital-W Weird fiction. Contributors include established names like Jane Yolen and Margo Lanagan alongside emerging international voices. The collection features both prose stories and poetry, unified by their willingness to venture into strange territory where familiar reality bends into something else entirely.
Genres: fiction, anthologies, fantasy, poetry
Vibes: atmospheric, lyrical, thought-provoking
Tropes: blurred-genre-boundaries, familiar-reality-bends
