Description
A different land can mean exotic nature, but also different customs, unusual habits and laws, different people, thoughts, and fates. The anthology A Different Land is a selection of short stories in the genres of fantasy, sci-fi, and horror, yet it addresses themes that resonate with the contemporary world. Issues of personal identity, environmental protection, family troubles, or intensive poultry farming. Mermaids swim among plastic bags, wizards experiment on children with disabilities, a tribe living on a giant iceberg flees their homeland as the time of melting approaches... The content of the stories is often critical and cautionary, but more than once a glimmer of hope appears at the end. Or at least an adorable kitten. Authors: Jela Abasová, Jan Hlávka, Tereza Janišová, Tereza Kadečková, Vilma Kadlečková, Přemysl Krejčík, Petra Machová, Tereza Matoušková, Veronika Salášková, Lukáš Vavrečka, Barbora Vrobelová.
