'A fire kindling. The energy of industry. Flickers of light in the darkness. An ember slips, releasing a spiral from the glowing interior. The burst and shower of fireworks. A vivid particle of light, held where it flies. Sparks combines all this and more, through stories, poems, essays and photographs by twenty-six new writers and artists. This anthology represents a creative instinct that will go on burning brightly.' (Publisher's blurb)
