Emergent: An Anthology of New Voices (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781962077163)

What happens when we get a second chance?

A Chinese princess silences her creative voice-then lives her life again. A woman sacrifices her lover to the storm, year after year, to save her drought-stricken town. A cat finds family. A man learns to unclench his fists. A writer discovers her fiction has bled into someone else's reality.

Emergent: Volume One gathers new voices in fiction, essay, and poetry-writers exploring transformation, resilience, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive.

Published by Garden of Neuro Institute, this anthology features work under consideration for the Pushcart Prize.
