Publisher's Synopsis
Twelve writers explore the various facets of being 'human' in this eclectic collection of tales. These stories cut across genre, ranging from the literary to the humorous, from the horrifying to the mysterious, from the fictional arts, to the fiction of science, but remain bound by the theme of human emotions. Be it a failed artist obsessed with a painting, or a frustrated husband obsessing over getting rid of the family cat; be it a father trying to bribe the son's memories-to-be or the concerned daughter prodding her father's estranged recollections; be it the ex-pilot reminiscing about drunk cows or the two strangers making believe about their make believe lives, it is the human element beneath the myriad settings that brings together Nivalis 2022, with tales from around the globe.
