In her vivid and sly, gentle and wise, long-anticipated first collection, Delia Sherman takes seemingly insignificant moments in the lives of artists or sailors—the light out a window, the two strokes it takes to turn a small boat—and finds the ghosts haunting them, the magic surrounding them. Here are the lives that make up larger histories, here are tricksters and gardeners, faeries and musicians, all glittering and sparkling, finding beauty and hope and always unexpected, a touch of wild magic. Praise for Delia Sherman's previous books: "Multilayered, compassionate, and thought-provoking."—Kirkus Reviews, starred review "Fantastic in every sense of the word, Sherman's second novel (Through a Brazen Mirror) is a skillfully crafted fairy tale that owes as much to E.T.A. Hoffman as to Charles Perrault. . . . The Porcelain Dove is no dainty vertu but a seductive, sinister bird with razored feathers."—Publishers Weekly Delia Sherman was born in Japan and raised in New York City. Her work has appeared most recently in the anthologies Naked City, Steampunk!, and Queen Victoria's Book of Spells. She is the author of six novels including The Porcelain Dove (a New York Times Notable Book), The Freedom Maze, and Changeling, and has received the Mythopoeic and Norton awards. She lives in New York City.

Elizabeth and Her German Garden was originally published without a named author. It is in fact the first work of Elizabeth Von Arnim, a British novelist of Australian origin who would go on to write more than twenty novels. Elizabeth and Her German Garden is a story told through the central character's diary. Elizabeth is a young woman very fond of her garden. The plot centers around Elizabeth's education in the ways of gardening and her relationships with friends and her husband. The protagonist is a noblewoman, married to a man she is not overly fond of, and living in a country she does not fully understand. It is a humorous work, where readers are encouraged to have fun at the expense of the protagonist, whose views on the world and gardening are frequently foolish. She is a simple girl, but wry, whimsical, and very witty. This is a semi-autobiographical work, and it is clear that Von Arnim has inserted much of herself into the central character. This is a book where the author knows the ins and outs of her character, and expertly reveals these details to the reader as the story unfolds. The nearly poetic descriptions of her garden are accompanied by humorous observations about life, and the two combine to form an enjoyable read. Elizabeth and Her German Garden is a book that sneaks up on you, gradually taking on an addictive quality as one becomes better acquainted with the central character. This is a short read, one that some readers may plough through in only a two or three of sittings. If you are a fan of light hearted fiction, Von Arnim's work will certainly appeal to you.

This that I now tell is as I saw my mothers do, or did myself, when I was young. My mothers were industrious women, and our family had always good crops; and I will tell now how the women of my father's family cared for their fields, as I saw them, and helped them. --Buffalo Bird Woman

A “soulful and exquisite” (Shelf Awareness) novel about an abandoned young woman and her infant son, the townspeople who provide them with shelter, and the secrets that all of them are keeping. “In this exceptional novel, Melanie Wallace conveys the depths and complexities of life in a seemingly uneventful New England village. The Girl in the Garden strikingly affirms Eudora Welty’s belief ‘that one place understood helps us understand all other places better.’?”—Ron Rash, New York Times bestselling author of Serena When June arrives on the coast of New England, baby in arms, an untrustworthy man by her side, Mabel—who rents them a cabin—senses trouble. A few days later, the girl and her child are abandoned. June is soon placed with Mabel’s friend, Iris, in town, and her life becomes entwined with a number of locals who have known each other for decades: a wealthy recluse with a tragic past; a widow in mourning; a forsaken daughter returning for the first time in years, with a stranger in tow; and a kindly WWII veteran who serves as the town’s sage. Surrounded by the personal histories and secrets of others, June finds the way forward for herself and her son becoming determined by the others’ pasts, including loves—and crimes—from years ago. In vivid, nuanced prose, Melanie Wallace—“a writer with a tender regard for the marginal, the missing, and the lost” (Hilary Mantel)—explores the time-tested bonds of a small community, the healing power of friendship and love, and whether the wrongs of the past can ever be made right. “Powerful…A quiet, contemplative novel that builds slowly and leaves a lasting impact.”—Publishers Weekly
