Hi, the book is a series of short stories with the theme of dislocation, of things being warped and not as they should be.

As for the art itself, I prefer people to make thier own interpretation.

Is it a massive alien craft attacking, or has some experiment gone wrong and warped the shape of the world...is it Earth? if it is it must be so far in the future that the continents are unrecognisable.
