Trash: Stories from the World of Waste

by Stephanie Jessop, Sam French, Lauren A. Forry

4.3 pounds. On average that’s how much trash you produce PER DAY. We cast off refuse as a matter of habit without even really thinking about it. We know it goes in a trashcan that goes from a kitchen, to a bin, and maybe we consider the truck that takes that away – but that’s pretty much the extent to which we devote any thought to our 4.3 pounds of waste. And why not? Who cares? It’s TRASH, how interesting can it be? Turns out – very. We let our writers loose on the theme of Trash and were as always surprised with the inventiveness of the stories. Turns out trash and landfills can be a treasure trove, a time capsule, a harbinger and a place where hope is found. Please enjoy Brick Moon’s final release for the year 2015, Trash: Stories from the World of Waste.
