Meet in difficult circumstances under flickering lights. Find
yourself privy to the secrets of strangers. The silent barman is
your confidante. Shilly-shally about succumbing to desire. Your
private fears may enter a public space. Visit an unorthodox
specialist. Make use of a pupa. Become someone else. Arrive at an
airfield at the periphery. Choose a random flight. Head out for the
lands you will come to know as UNTHOLOGY 6. 'A short story is the
ultimate close-up magic trick - a couple of thousand words to take
you around the universe or break your heart.' Neil Gaiman Stories
by: Robert Anthony, Roelof Bakker, Neil Campbell, Gordon Collins,
Ailsa Cox, Graeme Finnie, Chrissie Gittins, Simon Griffiths,
Victoria Hattersley, Daisy LaFarge, Luke Melia, Georgina Parfitt,
Jonathan Pinnock, Alex Plasatis Tim Sykes, Matthew Temple and James
Wall.
UNTHOLOGY No. 2 is the second of Unthank Books' annual collection
of unpredictable, unconventional short fiction. Like its
predecessor, UNTHOLOGY No. 2 showcases established writers on great
form and introduces exciting new voices. Its thirteen stories
depend upon choices voluntary or otherwise, incarcerations and
manic episodes and moments of doubt and transcendence. A man on his
stag night encounters a woman who threatens all his certainties.
The most ridiculous Health and Safety rules ever infect a company
HQ. The complete lexicon of the poets of Radial City is finally
made available. These are resonant tales for anxious times.
Contains writing by: Joshua Allen, Sarah Evans, Shanta Everington,
Paul A. Green, Lander Hawes, Ian Madden, Melissa Mann, M. Pinchuk,
Stephanie Reid, Ashley Stokes, Nick Sweeney, Tessa West and Charles
Wilkinson.

Wonderful and Frightening Short Fiction from New and Established
Writers Flinch at the things that twitch in the windows a mile up
from the city streets. Let text messages lead you towards a man
that you already know is going to mess with your head. Find the
meaning of life in your own lobotomy. Now, the ghost of Gaudi
whispers in your ear, urging you to get yourself another lover,
insisting it's all going to be smooth and comfortable this time.
Ruin yourself and drift towards the haunted shores of your youth.
Then find yourself back there, returned to the low-down slums of a
city in a country that no longer exists, that UNTHOLOGY 7
documented and mapped out for you, and you alone, a long, long time
ago.
Extraordinary short fiction from new and established writers.
UNTHOLOGY No.4 continues Unthank Books' celebrated series, drawing
its energy from the wanderlust and shape-shifting tendencies of the
contemporary short story. Its thirteen stories involve cats, crows
and angels; moments of realization and moments of doubt; bad moves,
wrong turns and trips across the border. A fire-scarred war veteran
enters the domain of a coked-up yuppie. A blind girl wakes up to
find that the birdsong has ended. A lad on the slide dates a
cosseted schoolgirl and ends up teetering on a church roof.
Safe-cracking stories by bold and stealthy writers. Joshua Allen
Sarah Bower Carys Bray Ruby Cowling Michael Crossan Sarah Evans

In the latest of our celebrated series, you find yourself
surfacing, dazed in the waiting room. You read snatches of lines
over the shoulders of raincoats. In the carriage you have glimpses
and visions. At your destination you can hear space, see thunder,
taste realization. You are running towards something, someone in
the trees who holds out to you an understanding hand. Welcome to
the wonderful and sometimes frightening world of Unthology 5.
UNTHOLOGY NO.3 is the third in Unthank Books' series showcasing the
finest short fiction from new and established writers. Like its
predecessors, UNTHOLOGY No.3 lets the classic short story jostle
for elbowroom with the formally unusual and the novelette. Its
eighteen stories describe sticky predicaments, testing choices and
reluctant confessions: a publisher surveys the changing literary
scene as an age-old mob war he's losing; a man finds himself
trapped by his own perfectionism in a forbidding meat-processing
factory; a strange black monolith appears in a back garden
somewhere in the north of England. Lit-up tales for dark times:
David Rose, Sandra Jensen, Sarah Dobbs, Mischa Hiller, Gordon
Collins, Ian Chung, Sharon Zink, Ashley Stokes, Angela Readman, CD
Rose, AJ Ashworth, John Nicholson, Philip Langeskov, Debz
Hobbs-Wyatt, Charlie Wilkinson, Sarah Evans, Tim Mitchell.
Containing 17 pieces by new and established authors, this
hard-hitting, hilarious, and entertaining collection showcases
unconventional, unpredictable, and experimental stories.
