About the Book:
’S e cruinneachadh de sgeulachdan-goirid ficsein saidheansail a th’ ann an Iomall. Coltach ri nobhailean bho ùghdaran leithid William Gibson, J.G Ballard agus Rudy Rucker, tha na sgeulachdan aig Alistair Paul a’ toirt an leughadair air turas iongantach gu saoghalan ùra.
Bho sgeulachdan mu chreutairean no-thalmhaidh agus daoine glacte ann an tìm, gu sgeulachdan mu choimpiutairean iongantach agus ‘gaol-reoithte’, tha Iomall a’ tabhainn measgachadh de stòraidhean àirid. Tha an cruinneachadh seo iomchaidh do leughadairean a tha measail air ficsean saidheansail agus daoine a tha airson eòlas fhaighinn air litreachas Gàidhlig ann an co-theacsa ùr agus dàna. Ma tha ùidh agaibh anns na sgeulachdan avant-garde bho Semiotext(e), no ma tha sibh measail air stòiridhean os-fhìreach, bidh sibh air ur beò-ghlacadh le Iomall. Tha an cruinneachadh seo a’ tabhainn rudeigin gu tur ùr do luchd-leughaidh na Gàidhlig.
