Antologi Atita, Wartamana, Anagata: Past, Present, and Future is a compilation of short stories curated from Emerging UWRF writers spanning the years 2008 to 2022. As the Festival commemorates its 20th Anniversary, the intention is to reintroduce previously published short stories through re-curation. This year’s anthology book serves as a retrospective, showcasing the Festival’s contribution to the growth of Indonesian literature by promoting gifted young authors. Additionally, it includes a new short story by an Emerging 2022 writer who participated in a writing workshop with Cynthia Dewi Oka.

Antologi Atita, Wartamana, Anagata: Past, Present, and Future adalah sebuah kumpulan cerita pendek yang dikurasi dari semua karya Emerging Writers UWRF dari 2008 sampai 2022. Dengan perayaan 20 tahun festival, kami hendak memperkenalkan ulang cerita-cerita pendek yang telah kami terbitkan sebelumnya melalui proses kurasi ulang. Buku antologi tahun ini menjadi sebuah kilas balik, menampilkan sumbangan festival untuk pertumbuhan sastra Indonesia dengan mempromosikan penulis-penulis muda berbakat. Lebih lagi, antologi ini juga memuat sebuah cerita pendek baru dari seorang Emerging Writer 2022 yang turut serta dalam lokakarya menulis dengan Cynthia Dewi Oka.
