Political figures across the world are reaching for words that seek to
accuse, to isolate and most of all, to frighten. And fear isn't subtle.
There has been a collective intake of breath in response to a narrative
of intolerance. There can be no grey areas. Except that human existence
is all about the grey areas -- and it is those that this anthology of
short stories explores -- providing a space for stories to be told and
voices to be heard. Some of the stories are speculative fiction, or
political parables to reflect on our present day problems.
Contributors to Rebel Alliance include Penny Simpson, Petra McQueen,
