Review: The Saint of Witches
I recently picked up Avra Margariti's first poetry collection, The Saint of Witches, which was published in April 2022 by Weasel Press. Avra is a Greek creator of speculative poetry, and I've been a fan of her work for a couple years now. Avra's speculative poetry has been published rather widely and been nominated for … Continue reading Review: The Saint of Witches

Review: Fen Stories
Fen Stories (by Daisy Johnson) = 4/5 Daisy Johnson's debut book, Fen Stories, is a marvelous collection of weird magical realism inspired by England's fenlands. Johnson's prose is intense and passionate, and it yanks you into each story as if you were swimming and someone suddenly reached up from below and pulled you under the … Continue reading Review: Fen Stories
