Giantstone – Andri Snær Magnason

In our final installment on the theme of Ashes from Chapter Two of
Living with the Unknown, we enter a fictional world dominated by
the monotony and tireless momentum of greed. In this short story
from Icelandic author Andri Snær Magnason, time expands and
collapses as an architect in Reykjavíik struggles against the
soulless design of urban landscapes in the Anthropocene. Emergence
Magazine, Vol 3: Living with the Unknown explores what living in an
apocalyptic reality looks like through four themes: Initiation,
Ashes, Roots, and Futures. Every two months we’ll release a new
chapter online. Experience “Chapter Two: Ashes.” Learn more about
