Things We Didn’t See Coming is the first novel from Melbourne based writer, Steven Amsterdam.

Things We Didn’t See Coming serves as a warning to readers about political extremism and environmental catastrophes. The book is written as a series of short stories which are connected, but often not obviously so.
