Dark Mountain Issue 18: Fabula

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (27509 ratings)

Description:Our eighteenth issue, FABULA, is the first Dark Mountain book dedicated to fiction. Fiction has always been at the heart of our call for ‘uncivilised’ writing. In a world convulsed by crisis, when old certainties are collapsing and narratives are falling apart, it is to stories that we look to bear witness to the state we are in. Unlike essays, non-fiction and ‘facts’ – which become more distorted by the day – fiction does not approach the fears and hopes of our times directly but obliquely, slantwise and widdershins, moving us in unexpected ways and changing our hearts, perhaps, as much as our thinking brains. In the pages of FABULA you will find short stories, flash fiction and excerpts from novels and longer pieces, as well as artwork and illustrations specially commissioned for this book. This is a journey through modern fairytale, absurdist parable, vision and dream: from the bogs of a dystopian Ireland to near-future West Africa; from the drought-ravaged Australian Outback to the mouldering wreckage of enterprise in the all-consuming Amazon; from a deconstructed bird’s nest to punctuation shipwrecked at sea. You will encounter a vengeful river, litigious bears, a mythical forest guardian, the ghostly shades of America’s wars, stories of religious and sexual ecstasy, swarms of butterflies and drones, and be exposed to a global pandemic – but not the one you’re expecting. This book is truly international, with writers and artists from the UK, Ireland, the US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Ghana and India. A selection of the stories are also available as audio versions read by the authors; details can be found in the back of the book.
