The celebrated Italian writer Italo Calvino’s novel "Invisible Cities" explores the intersection of reality and imagination through 11 startling themes, from ‘Cities and Desire’ to ‘Trading Cities’ to ‘Cities and the Dead’. A hundred years after his birth, 11 emerging writers from Aotearoa have each taken a city from their own country and written a short story that pays tribute to Calvino’s work while addressing the themes that besiege cities in the twenty-first century.
