Critics Review
“Within this beautiful, heartbreaking, inspiring book you’ll find some of the best speculative fiction I’ve read in years. Every story is alive, a living breathing thing, and they have collectively stayed with me since I read them and will for many years to come. Simply magnificent.” - Daniel José Older, New York Timesbestselling author of Ballad & Dagger and story architect of Star Wars: The High Republic; “This is a collection of astonishingly brave, imaginative, and unapologetic stories that neither compromise on the integrity of their origin nor pander to a myopic audience. Reading this melancholy folklore of oppression and exile — of an inheritance of pain and countless loves dared and lost—stunned me and moved me to tears over and over. May these tales shatter the walls of every prison the world imposes upon them.” - Usman T. Malik, World Fantasy Award–winning author of Midnight Doorways: Fables from Pakistan
