Elemental

From the ephemeral to the earth beneath our feet, from fire in the heavens to the water of life, from atoms and molecules to modern relationships, seventeen authors explore 'the elements' through the form of the short story. 



Whether in the building blocks of the universe or the climatic conditions that sustain us, whether in the finer points of music and desire, or in the perfect conditions for creating wine and wonder, these are the fundamentals that shape who we are and how we live.



Playfully working with mystery and humour, poignancy and myth, futurism and the ancient past, the magic of fiction has the power to enlighten a deeper sense of truth.
