Annotation

Europe has always been Other, and there have always been other Europes. Six stories: six Europes. All of them teetering on the very edge of the map. "Shades of Anna Kavan , Noemi Szecsi and Vasyl Shkliar drape the dark borders of these liminal tales of seductive water spirits, dolorous orphans, and Communist officers driven by unpredictable loyalties. As illuminated here in wryly bewitching prose. continental history is a tarnished pond disturbed by the breath of old gods and goddesses - pagan forces Simsa suggests may yet erupt to take vengeance for the crime of forgetting them." (Naomi Foyle, author of 'Seoul Survivors' and 'Astra')
