This issue, we take you to the future, to alternative Earths where things are never as they seem, a time we imagine is more dependent on the fluidity of our imaginations than even the chaotic times in which we now live. We allow glimpses into a future where a man seeks to be reunited with his wife and child, but the needs of the one pale before the will of the many.

A time of hunger and desolation forces a family to defy the sovereign powers of their land, a decision which leads to disastrous consequences.

The lone survivor of a planet-wide holocaust plots revenge against the bloodthirsty creatures who share the wasteland he calls home.

A young girl plays God in an attempt to earn the love of her grandfather.

And, of course, an issue of Liquid Imagination wouldn't be complete without some modern day tales of ghosts, love and, um, cutting up one's face.

So dive in; the water's a bit murky, but the stories we offer you this month should provide all the clarity your imagination needs.
