   Cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra.  wanderlustlover | Dec 26, 2022 |    ) Jon_Hansen | Jan 14, 2022 | Truly. That's the strength of these stories. They're all brilliant no matter how many times you read them and it still feels fresh every single time. I'm not used to that. If it was any other author I might get a sinking feeling and skip the remembered story and start getting anxious about all the rest. Not with Cat. Cat reaches DEEP into my subconscious and toys with all the archetypes like she is a goddess, wraps them up in nice meta-bows, and then tosses them at your dream-self like a guided-missile made of dragons and unicorns. And it's SMART. Always so smart. :) And I feel the need to shout Catherynne M. Valente's name from the mountaintops. Her fantasy and SF cuts to the very heart of everything, doing it more than lyrically before turning you into cotton candy that will be forced to eat itself. Barbes-à-papa-cannibalism-literature. I can't recommend her stuff enough. I truly can't. It's like eating the bread in our dreams. :) (  ) bradleyhorner | Jun 1, 2020 | ) sasameyuki | Aug 12, 2020 | Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

In the Locus Award-winning novelette "White Lines on a Green Field," an old story plays out against a high school backdrop as Coyote is quarterback and king for a season. A girl named Mallow embarks on an adventure of memorable and magical politicks in "The Girl Who Ruled Fairyland--For a Little While." The award-winning, tour de force novella "Silently and Very Fast" is an ancient epic set in a far-flung future, the intimate autobiography of an evolving A.I. And in the title story, the history of a New England town and that of an outcast demon are irrevocably linked. The twenty-six pieces collected here explore an extraordinary breadth of styles and genres, as Valente presents readers with something fresh and evocative on every page. From noir to Native American myth, from folklore to the final frontier, each tale showcases Valente's eloquence and originality. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

I love Cat. I have and will always love Cat. Since she was writing things on live journal and puzzles in webpages and writing letters to fans with wax seal stories inside of them that came to our mailboxes. I have and will always be in love with her writing, wanting to eat it slowly like a last meal, feeling my heart grow and shrink, the horror and the beauty. I was so deeply in love and moved by so many of these stories, and wholly different quotes in different places. I loved it so much I even reread the pieces in here -- poetry and stories -- I'd already managed to track down before.
Everyone should read this. Everyone. Ever. (
