Synopsis

In this anthology, we tread the common ground of “not having”. But our lives are very different and each of our voices spins a different tale. Read on, and you will discover (un)common worlds. There are dragons, cloud-circling and deep-dwelling. Characters travel by bus and by train. They walk, run or even fly, through the pin-drop silence of libraries, through moon-frosted streets and winter-chilled parks, farms, houses, shops, cafés, and possibly the grottiest pub in existence. Family ties are important, and not always the ones you’re born with. Transformation can liberate but also imprison us. We encounter isolation, addiction, tragedy and grief, but we also find love, connection, and hope.
