Even in a highly connected, globalized world, some conflicts seem truly unprecedented. Whether ecological, economic, or even divine in nature, these disasters cause collisions between modernity and culture that threaten time-worn traditions. The latest fiction by Yamen Manai, Jordi Nopca, and Kawai Strong Washburn follows characters whose lives sit on the precipice of great change as they weather the aftershocks of events initiated far and away.
