Delving deeper into the genre-spanning territory explored in "Interfictions," the Interstitial Arts Foundation's first groundbreaking anthology, "Interfictions 2" showcases twenty-one original and innovative writers. It includes contributions from authors from six countries, including the United States, Poland, Norway, Australia, France, and Great Britain.
Newcomers such as Alaya Dawn Johnson, Theodora Goss, and Alan DeNiro rub shoulders with established visionaries such as Jeffrey Ford ("The Drowned Life"), Brian Francis Slattery ("Liberation"), Nin Andrews ("The Book of Orgasms"), and M. Rickert ("Map of Dreams").
Colleen Mondor, of the well-known blog Chasing Ray, interviews the editors for the afterword.
Henry Jenkins, ex-director of MIT's Comparative Media Studies program and now a member of USC's Annenberg School for Communication and School of Cinematic Arts, provides a fantastic introduction sure to set readers' imaginations alight.
"Interfictions 2" is here and ready to be read, discussed, taught, blogged, taken apart, and re-interpreted.
