Saffron and Brimstone : Strange Stories, Paperback Book

Saffron and Brimstone : Strange Stories Paperback

Paperback

Description

Widely praised and widely read, Elizabeth Hand is regarded as one of America's leading literary fantasists.

This new collection (an expansion of the limited-release Bibliomancy, which won the World Fantasy Award in 2005) showcases a wildly inventive author at the height of her powers.

Included in this collection are "The Least Trumps," in which a lonely women reaches out to the world through symbols, tattooing, and the Tarot, and "Pavane for a Prince of the Air," where neo-pagan rituals bring a recently departed soul to something very different than eternal rest.

Written in the author's characteristic poetic prose and rich with the details of traumatic lives that are luminously transformed, "Saffron and Brimstone" is a worthy addition to an outstanding career.
