Synopsis "I Found Happiness & Tragedy: Selections from the 2022 Literary Taxidermy Writing Competition (in English)"
I FOUND HAPPINESS & TRAGEDY is an anthology that contains the finalists from the 2022 Literary Taxidermy Writing Competition - a contest that invites writers to stitch together their own stories and poems using the opening and closing lines of classic works of fiction. This year's participants were given the opening and closing lines from four works: "As I Grew Older," a poem by Langston Hughes; "Ms. Found in a Bottle," a short story by Edgar Allan Poe; "Happiness," a poem by A. A. Milne; and "The Tragedy at Marsdon Manor," a short story by Agatha Christie. Happiness, tragedy, mystery, poetry, science fiction, fantasy, humor, and horror-these literary taxidermy stories and poems are as different from one another as the 20 incredible authors who dreamt them up. Come, meet this year's finalists from around the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Canada, India, Ireland, Wales, and Scotland. We're certain you'll enjoy their incredible work!
