'Stories of Perth celebrates the diversity that exists in this city. A place that is simultaneously welcoming and prejudiced, kind and cruel, aspirational and even eccentric in its mundanity.
'Seizure has collected the work of 15 outstanding new voices, telling stories that range from family drama to modern noir, from cultural clashes to the burden of memory.
'These are stories from lives you don't often get to see, from authors as varied as the city itself.'
