The Last Five Minutes of a Storm is a short story collection packed full of defiance, grief, connection, power and, of course, a dash of strangeness. With strong magical realism influences, this collection features a host of new and emerging writers tackling the question of what it means to face a storm head on!

Praise for The Last Five Minutes of a Storm:

"Filled with moment after moment of wonder, drama, intrigue, and grace. The stories are perfectly chosen; realism and fantasy, the quotidian and the singular clashing and complementing and ultimately comprising the most satisfying of experiences... works of extraordinary beauty." – Donal Ryan, award-winning, twice Booker-longlisted author of Strange Flowers

"A stunning collection of writings, full of beauty, power and skill, and the new truths we need to be reading." – Joseph O'Connor, bestselling author of 2019 Irish Novel of the Year Shadowplay.

Unicorns locked away in the cargo holds of spaceships, becoming roller skating phenoms or leaving sparkly rainbow poop in a poor bartender’s living room are just the start. There’s a demi-god trying to figure out where Pegasus has disappeared to, horses formed of sea, or steam and even one who thinks he’s a spider. And so much more. These stories are all a little untamed, a little wild, a little… untethered.
