A collection of very different stories from writers spanning three continents – this anthology is moving, disturbing and daring in equal measures.
Writing in very broad interpretations on the theme of health, the stories take us on a journey through many minds and many places. Expect a book that transports you to hospital beds, health food shops, the Nova Scotian countryside, and damp English woodland – all delivered with an unusual and uncanny intensity. Included in the book are the selected finalists in the 2012 competition which attracted entries from around the world.

I would like to order a copy but am wondering how and when you would ship. I am leaving on an extended trip Nov 15/12 until April 01/13. Would it be best to wait until my return? Thanks Trish Keating
Hi Trish. We hope to have print copies by 6th November ready for the launch – depending on where you live I could get a copy to you by 15th. Happy to accept a preorder.
Would this anthology fit in a hospice setting? I was worried about the ‘disturbing’ reference…
Hi Fiona, The collection is quite dark in places – but there are some uplifting and moving stories. I am not sure a hospice setting “wouldn’t” be a place for it. I guess it would be down to how the individual feels.
