The Senses. We’ve all got them and are using them constantly. Even the Pinball Wizard had a couple. What’s that sound? Did you see that? Don’t let that touch me. Smells delicious. The taste of heaven…
As humans, we are constantly processing our responses to the sensory input. With this in mind, editor Allen Ashley has collected together 21 new stories that explore our relationship with our primary senses. What’s it really like to be invisible? What can we do against sounds that kill? And what do you think is truly in that feely bag? These are stories from British and north American writers that will take you to the far reaches of the sensory world and beyond. You may not look at / hear / smell /taste / touch reality in quite the same way again.
