{"author_name":"Jali: The Short Story Collection: 6 Original Sci Fi Short Stories","author_url":"https://art19.com/shows/jali-the-short-story-collection-6-original-sci-fi-short-stories","description":" Written for audio format, this collection of six science fiction stories draw on themes of arrival, discovery and destination. Commissioned especially for Audible, and narrated by outstanding performers, these stories evoke the traditional storytelling of West African Jali as the unknown and distant are brought to life for audiences.  In this collection Chris Beckett and An Owomoyela use the theme of 'discovery' to shape tales of searching; Nikesh Shukla and Lauren Beukes consider 'destination' in stories of finding a home; and Ken Liu and Paul Cornell each discuss 'arrival'.   Jali  is one of three short story collections written by our favourite best-selling novelists and emerging authors, and curated based on the themes of arrival, discovery and destination.  Bard  collates contemporary fiction while  Skald  features six crime stories.  This is an Audible Original Podcast. Free for members. You can download all 6 episodes to your Library now.
