In his sharply crafted, unnerving first collection of speculative
fiction shorts, Courttia Newland envisages an alternate future as
lived by the African diaspora. Robots used as human proxies in a
war become driven by all-too-human desires; Kill Parties roam the
streets of a post-apocalyptic world; a matriarchal race of mer
creatures depends on inter-breeding with mortals to survive;
mysterious seeds appear in cities across the world, growing into
the likeness of people in their vicinity. Through transfigured
bodies and impossible encounters, Newland brings a sharp, fresh eye
to age-old themes of the human capacity for greed, ambition and
self-destruction, but ultimately of our strength and resilience.
