Aprašymas
THE EARTH ROOM is a collection of fabulist stories that explore the natural world, superstition, motherhood, and loss. In one story, a woman transforms her boyfriend into a salamander. In another, a group of women are drawn together by a support group for the partners of vampires and werewolves. Inhabiting these stories are secret tunnels, magical doorways, modern witches, a mother who gives birth to a ghost, a town full of doubles, a sanctuary for potbelly pigs, and a daughter who never grows up. The stories transport us from the forests of Appalachia to the Sonoran Desert to the glaciers of Iceland, while always staying grounded in the inner lives of their characters.
