{"product_id":"9780987447937","title":"The Great Unknown","description":"\u003cbr\u003eIn this anthology, our editor, Angela Meyer, pays tribute to the undeniable cultural influence that American TV programs such as \u003ci\u003eTwilight Zone \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eOuter Limits \u003c\/i\u003ehave had on our lives \"down under.\" \"These TV dramas,\" Meyer says, \"were often metaphors for equality, justice, the nuclear threat and more. Though they were just as often pure, spooky fun.\" Meyer has selected short stories and microfiction which range from the fantastical and macabre to the absurd. In Paddy O'Reilly's \u003ci\u003eReality TV\u003c\/i\u003e, a guest is confronted with her husband's infidelity in front of a live audience, and Ali Alizedah's \u003ci\u003eTruth and Reconciliation \u003c\/i\u003esatirizes American celebrity television. Chris Flynn's \u003ci\u003eSealer's Cove \u003c\/i\u003ehas a nudist caught in a time slip. Carmel Bird evokes Edgar Allan Poe when over-sized hares incite the good folk of rural Victoria to commit criminal acts, and in \u003ci\u003eSticks and Stones\u003c\/i\u003e, Ryan O'Neill has an academic attacked by a demonic alphabet. Contributors include established and emerging writers such as Marion Halligan and Krissy Kneen, as well as new talents.","brand":"Spineless Wonders","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47023347073264,"sku":"9780987447937","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780987447937_p0.jpg?v=1763897835","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780987447937","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
