Nothing

by Hannah Kate (Editor), Daisy Black, Kim Bannerman

Bleak landscapes, empty hearts, insignificant lives, dystopian futures, extinction, limbo, uncertainty, death. A beautiful void or a horrific state of being. The simple complexity of nothingness. A new anthology of short stories that take place when everything has gone, in the empty spaces that are left, and with the people that cling to a last deceptive semblance of something anything in the face of the void. Embark on a journey to nowhere, with no one, meaning nothing. Twenty nihilistic tales by Daisy Black, K. Bannerman, Patrick Lacey, Anthony Cowin, Amanda Steel, C.V. Leedham, Jeanette Greaves, Ackley Lewis, Sally Davies, Valentine George, Melanie Stott, Tim Major, Hannah Kate, Rue Karney, M. Raymond, Sara Uckelman, David Turnbull, Tony Rabig, Nancy Schumann and Sarah Peploe.

[Nancy Schumann · Rating 5 out of 5]

A great selection of short stories with very different takes on what “nothing” might be.
