Embracing The Strange
Embracing The Strange

Speculative fiction blending reality with poignant imagination.

If you're fascinated by the potential of speculative fiction to shape perspectives, "Embracing The Strange" will resonate deeply. Jason Erik Lundberg's personal insights, combined with a multi-layered narrative, creates a compelling hybrid-essay that challenges the boundaries between the real and the fantastical. It's a creative journey that reflects not only on the genre but also on life's transformative moments.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

In early 2012, Jason Erik Lundberg was asked to deliver a plenary talk to Singapore's best and brightest young creative writers. He chose to speak about the extraordinary impact of speculative fiction on every facet of his life, from childhood to the birth of his daughter, and beyond. This talk was expanded, and integrated with a multi-part short story about a brave little girl who tumbles down a very different kind of rabbit hole, and must use her bravery and intelligence in order to find her way home. The result is a 14,000-word hybrid-essay of such power and poignancy that the real and the imagined become inextricably mixed.
