Shadows on the Hillside - Paperback

by Storm Constantine (Editor), Liz Williams (Author), Freda Warrington (Author)

An anthology featuring stories that take the reader deep into the strangeness of the landscape, where reality flickers like summer's heat. An empty car with a door hanging open by an endless field of wheat; shimmering heat at midsummer, when something walks unseen in the sunlight; a sense of presence in the view below you as you reach the crest of a hill and look down upon... a story yet untold.

About the Authors

"Shadows on the Hillside is a sightseeing odyssey into the literary strange. The anthology is dysfunctional in all its lucidity, where summer evenings stretch and stark black hills deadstare against a blood sky at weathered sandhills and tors in a beauty of heartache and place." - Aurealis
