From a boy witch to a parental cyborg, from a woman trapped beneath a building to a lonely empress on a faraway planet, from a crop duster's demise to a young girl's most secret code -- you've never read a collection of stories like this one!
34 STORIES contains the Huxley finalists from the 2020 Literary Taxidermy Short Story Competition -- a contest that invites aspiring writers to stitch together their own stories using the first and last lines from a classic work of fiction.
This year's participants were given the opening and closing lines of Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Science fiction, fantasy, suspense, romance, metafiction, historical fiction, humor -- these literary taxidermy stories are as different from one another as the 10 incredible authors who dreamt them up. Come, meet this year's finalists from around the the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Sweden. We're certain you'll enjoy their incredible work!
Learn more about literary taxidermy, as well as future contests, by visiting The Literary Taxidermy Short Story Competition (literarytaxidermy.com).
