Beskrivelse
Exploding with windstorms, floods, stones, tectonic plates, and radioactive disasters, these stories from around the world showcase contemporary literature at its most daring.
A family's heirloom stones unearth a story spanning war, illness, and radioactivity. A pipeline installed to protect a town from flooding results in a howling that disturbs the town's inhabitants. A political prisoner embarks on an epic flight toward freedom, literally blown like a kite in the wind.
Borrowing from eco-literature and mythology, Elemental unflinchingly takes on the earth. A whirlwind of fiction and reportage from Japan, Iran, Germany, Israel, Poland, Madagascar, Norway, and Iraq, this collection explores how earth, wind, water, and fire shape our narratives and alter our existence.
