Produktbeschreibung
Loneliness and queer desire haunt these stories, and as often as there is despair, there is hope. Gods, dragon keepers, death witches, seekers, and lovers reach for intimacy and find startling answers. In "On Lore," a woman tries to save her girlfriend from the allure of nightmares. "In Our Season" finds a couple vacationing in Iceland's fairytale summer only to be confronted with the emotional pain of its winters. A woman who lives her life covered in snakes grieves her mother's death, and a girl with moonstone eyes plots a desperate escape from Earth. Poison becomes liberation. Kisses are most transformative when they draw blood. These stories are glittering pieces of sapphic fantasy, each served like red fruit on a black mirror.
