Cubed Lives - Stories of Isolation and Escape: Lives Shaped by Boundaries and Freedom

By: Blake, Alden

Cubed Lives is a thought-provoking collection of ten thematically linked short stories exploring the invisible boxes we live inside. From the claustrophobic office cubicle to the literal confines of a transparent gallery, from algorithm-driven lives to isolated urban housing blocks, these stories delve into the modern experience of alienation, routine, and rebellion.

Each tale captures a character trapped-physically, mentally, or socially-in their own "cube," struggling with loneliness, conformity, and the quest for meaning. Blending realism, surrealism, and dark humor, Cubed Lives invites readers to confront the walls that surround them and consider what freedom truly means in a world shaped by technology, expectations, and fear.

Whether you find yourself questioning the routines that define your days or craving a glimpse of rebellion against invisible cages, this collection offers a mirror for the soul and a spark for change.
