RED: The Waterstones Anthology

Red: The Waterstones Anthology is a stunning collection of new writing by some of the best writers working today. Around the theme of red, these eighteen pieces of short fiction and on-fiction are a reflection of the highs and lows of 2012 - our world in their words. From Hanif Kureishi's take on the legacy of terrorism to love and all its failings by Rachel Cusk, and from Max Hastings’ lament for our armed forces to an attack on the decline of feminism by Suzanne Moore, these pages capture all the anger, assertiveness and celebration of an extraordinary moment in time.
