Pulped Fiction

Cri Fi, Sci Fi, Noir, Rom Com, Lit Fic, Western, Horror, Gothic, Fantasy, Fairytale... In Spineless Wonders' latest anthology of microlit, writers were invited to play with genre.

Here you will find some of the well-worn tropes from literature and film reshaped and manipulated - all in less than half a page. The results are sometimes political, sometimes philosophical; but always playful, witty and stunningly written.

Edited by Cassandra Atherton, the anthology includes pieces by commissioned well-known writers including the award-winning joanne burns as well as new voices unearthed through the national Microlit Award named in her honour.
