UNTHOLOGY showcases the work of new or established writers and can include short stories of any length, reportage, essays or novel extracts from anywhere in the world. UNTHOLOGY allows space for stories of different styles and subjects to rub up against each other. It features the classic slice-of-life well told just as much as the experimental, the shocking and strange. Unthology is published by Unthank Books and edited by Ashley Stokes.
Unthology 10 features new fiction by Tom Vowler, Valerie O’Riordan, Elaine Chiew, Dan Carpenter and many more.
