OPEN ANTHOLOGIES

Belong/A Place Called Home

edited by Russell B. Farr

Everybody comes from somewhere, especially in Australia. Belong/A Place Called Home seeks to explore the themes of immigration, including refugees and both sides of the migrant experience through the speculative genres.

What makes people pack up their belongings and leave their homeland? What happens when they return as a tourist? How does it feel to grow up as a first generation resident of a new land? How does it feel to live in a land with a large migrant and multicultural population?

Belong, and its companion book, A Place Called Home, a two-volume sf anthology is scheduled for release in 2009.

The anthology is open to unsolicited submissions until 31 May 2008.
