On 01/01/10 we gave you Chinese Whisperings: The Red Book. 10 stories. 10 authors. One anthology.
On 10/10/10… we did it again! Twice the stories. Twice the authors. Twice the anthology.
eMergent Publishing is proud to present Chinese Whisperings: The Yin and Yang Books.
In the international terminal of a large European airport, Monday morning is about to get a whole lot worse. At 7.35am Pangaean Airlines, one of Europe’s major carriers, is put into receivership grounding all flights, stranding thousands of passengers and impounding tonnes of luggage. The Yin and Yang Books reveals the complicated web of events stemming from a suitcase, a lost Van Gogh painting, one woman on the run from her employers and the dilemma of a decision.
Our anthologies are the literary equivalent of a concept album – only far more exciting and interesting, than any concept album ever released. Written collaboratively by a team of international emerging writers, Chinese Whisperings’ anthologies encourage characters and story lines to criss-cross and double back from one story to the next, creating a unique hybrid of short story collection and novel. Each story can be read in isolation as a satisfying literary experience but reading every story allows the entire narrative to unfold – often in quite unexpected and shocking ways.
Are you ready? Then head on over to the Book Shop and place your order!
“The collection got better with each story read, and so too do the previous stories, the sum greater than its parts, and the parts made greater because of the sum. “
~ Jen Brubacher on The Red Book, Scribo Ergo Sum, January 2010
STILL AVAILABLE – THE RED BOOK
“What is perhaps most striking about The Red Book is the fact that, on finishing the final tale, it leaves the reader with a desire to return to the beginning and experience the various threads of plot and character again, certain a second read will unlock deeper complexities of connection. The Red Book comes highly recommended as an interesting concept that manages to live up to its promise.”
~ Dan Powell, Dan Powell Fiction, January 2010
