Nineteen contributors from India and Australia--including Printz Award-winning author Margo Lanagan and New York Times bestsellers Justine Larbalestier and Samhita Arnir--team up to create a "rare treat of speculative literature" in this groundbreaking feminist collection that "bursts with imagination" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). A post-apocalyptic Little Red Riding Hood. Girls and boys turning the tables on creepy old cat-callers. Female pirates rescuing abused women. A futuristic cooking show. These are just a few of the stories told in Eat the Sky, Drink the Ocean, a feminist speculative fiction collection, born of a collaboration between Australian and Indian writers. Finding themselves inspired to action after crimes against women dominated national conversations, the editors of this collection paired writers and illustrators from India and Australia together to write stories, graphic novels, and even a play that reimagine what girls can be and see themselves as. The results are stunning. Some of the authors worked together, some wrote stories along a similar theme, but all seventeen stories blend magical realism and self-confidence in a powerful and inspiring way.… (altro)
Absolutely stunning collection of short stories, short comic stories, and one play, written as collaborations between Indian and Australian authors and artists in response to rash of violence against young women. The stories all touch on feminist themes (though "Cool" felt a little out of place, though I liked it still!) with strong female protagonists and are so vivid, at times I forgot which ones were the comics and which were the written stories. I lost myself in the whole collection. Time to go back and re-read my favorites, which include:
-"Little Red Suit" -"Cooking Time" -"Cast Out" -"Cat Calls" -"Appetite" -"Mirror Perfect" -"What a Stone Can Feel" -"Memory Lace"
But seriously, they're all pretty great.

Counting as my indie press for the Read Harder challenge. ( )
