Vera Nazarian: Salt of the Air

Cover for SALT OF THE AIR, by Vera Nazarian

First short story collection Salt of the Air by Vera Nazarian, with an Introduction by Gene Wolfe, is now available for Pre-Order.

"Fantasy, you see, is really about things that are not believed; and the reality or unreality of those things has nothing to do with it."

— Gene Wolfe
(from the Introduction)

In this debut collection from the critically acclaimed author of Dreams of the Compass Rose and Lords of Rainbow, the sixteen stories are distillations of myth and philosophy, eroticism and ascetic purity. Dipping into an ancient multi-ethnic well, they are the stuff of fantasy — of maidens and deities and senior retirees, of emperors and artists and con artists, of warriors and librarians, of beings without a name and things very fey indeed. . . .

Don't be afraid of ingesting ethereal salt.

Open your mind and inhale.
