Unthology 5
ISBN-10: 191006100X
ISBN-13: 978-1910061008
​"Unthology 5...is chock full of excellent material by both new and established authors. Some stories are more structurally unusual than others, such as Jose Varghese’s A Writer Tries To Work It Out. This story flits between two parallel stories, one revolving around a writer and another person, and the other revolving around the characters in a story the writer is showing to said person, cleverly creating two layers of narrative, one of which becomes somewhat a critique of the other. This mixture of more experimental works with shorts that are more structurally ordinary emphasises how the collection is more an exciting collage of styles than a stagnant string of tales queued merely for stylistic constancy, allowing the collection to explore the potential of the short story form, rather than settling on tried and tested formulas."
