Description

The almanac includes stories by graduates of the online writing skills school “Brevity and Talent,” as well as invited authors who are just beginning a major literary career. In 2020, the whole world was stuck in quarantine, lamenting yesterday’s harmony and anxiously looking into the future. For completely understandable reasons, the main theme of the collection is fate. The blows of fate. The gifts of fate. Sharp turns and obstacles standing in the way of the main characters. Fateful decisions. Coincidences that, of course, are never really coincidences. With great interest, the authors explored this theme, reflecting on the future fate of all humankind and of individual people in particular.
