The anthology is an alarm that needs to be heard around the world. The seven vignettes being showcased in the anthology feature a particular animal as a central figure of each story; ANIMALS IN WAR radiates for many reasons and one is the range of artistic styles showing the war’s overlooked ecological crisis.
