Wonders of the Unseen World

Wonders of the Unseen World proves there are mysteries, below the surface, all around us. Woven through these twelve uncanny tales are women reclaiming their bodies to discover their power in the world. In this landscape a woman can haunt a cavern and be reborn, risk a drink from a fountain of youth that turned her lover to stone, use a lunar eclipse to loop back in time to try and make amends, bring a Blue Jay tattoo fluttering to life, transform from mother to a lake serpent, discover the ability to vanish objects, animals, and people that she paints on a canvas, or even commune with ancestral witches and foretell her own death.

Weaving together their stories from the days and decades both before and after the crash into a larger narrative, A Common Disaster examines the pattern of belief evoked by accidents to show how individuals are changed forever by their common experience.
The Space Between Our Adjacent Hearts
