Twentieth Century House

A novella-sized collection of five startling speculative short stories. From the fantastical to the futuristic, these stories span a century or more, ranging from magic realism to a vision of the ubiquitously connected world of the late 21st century.

In 'Leaving Paris', in a world where artists can temporarily become other people for inspiration, what happens when you take on the persona of a psychopath?

In 'The Mechanics of Love' a man is besieged by the media, curious onlookers and hunters as he finds out what happens when love crosses the species barrier.

In 'Twentieth Century House' a woman and her family try to find refuge from tragedy by joining a futuristic reality show.

In 'Tofino', a man and a raven travel through a world utterly changed, searching for a way to undo a disastrous decision.

'A Node in the Network' shows a world of uncertainty and carefully engineered human augmentation, where two young women journey through catastrophe and the challenges of a dawning post-human future.
