Great British writers, from Joanne Harris to Alasdair Gray, and Liz Jensen, devise original responses to the biggest challenge of our time
An incredible collection of stories for our shared planet from the likes of Joanne Harris, Toby Litt and Liz Jensen
A riveting and provocative collection of short fiction, Beacons throws down the gauntlet to award-winning writers, challenging them to devise original responses to the climate crisis. From Joanne Harris’ cautionary tale of a world where ‘outside’ has become a thing of the past, to Nick Hayes’ graphic depiction of the primeval bond between man and nature, each story thrills the senses as it attempts to make sense of a world warping into something unfamiliar. Original, eclectic, and inventive, Beacons warns and inspires by offering stories that are as various as our possible futures.
