While animals understand the world without words, humans create our experiences as stories, translating past and future into tales told in the present. Stewart's stories take the notion of storytelling and expand to a consideration of how truth, misremembering, logic, lying, and uncertainty play together to affect our experience of reality. In an alternate reading of time, Stewart poses the suggestion that you may already have a future memory of reading this book, and reading the stories backward may bring us back to the present. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eShadows and Clouds\u003c\/i\u003e is the winner of the 2021 Omnidawn Fabulist Fiction Chapbook \/ Novelette Contest, chosen by Theodora Ziolkowski.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marcus Stewart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1632431262\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781632431264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Omnidawn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/20\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs","brand":"Marcus Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44149295644927,"sku":"9781632431264","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d88900b6-f891-465c-9a13-4c76a874f75e.jpg?v=1688455900","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/shadows-and-clouds-marcus-stewart-9781632431264","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
