Black Dingo Short Stories

A stunning collection of African-Australian short stories from the multi-award-winning author Eugen Bacon. Black Dingo is a cross-genre miscellany that embraces multi-award-winning author Eugen Bacon's hybridity as an African Australian who is 'betwixt', 'a sum of parts' - she is a mother, a daughter, a sister, a woman, a writer, an author, an editor, a scholar and a friend. She is many, and it reflects in this collection that transverses transformative stories of longing and belonging, unlimited futures, a collision of worlds, mythology, and more. Featuring a black heroine, in each story is a cameo or secondary character of a dingo. Black Dingo is sponsored through Eugen's Otherwise Fellowship awarded by the Otherwise Motherboard; this speculative fiction cases black people in bold and evocative text, at times deeply flawed but potentially redeemable protagonists in rich hues of blackness and light. The literary strange unravels in these genre-bending Afro-irreal tales of longing and belonging, unlimited futures, a collision of worlds and everything in between: rich hues of shadow and light.
