Disappearing Cities

Disappearing Cities is a collection of short stories of invented cities, set in the not too distant future, destroyed by climate change impacts. The projected fictions are created from projected current climate facts. Inspired by Italo Calvino's book Invisible Cities, the work aims to be a salient contemporary companion text.
