The first MYTHIC DELIRIUM of 2016! Features from Finch, Leibowitz, Frederick
Hello, everyone! I hope the new year has been good to you so far.
Here at Mythic Delirium Books, we have a lot going on in the first half of 2016, not least of which is the release of our first Mythic Delirium issue of the year.
In our January-March 2016 issue, Sheila Finch, Janna Layton, and Jeannette Ng provide fantasy tales that have embedded within them thoughtful takes on Christian themes, in the best traditions of Stephen King or James Morrow. A breeze from the ocean wafts through each of these tales as well, bearing tidings of murder, mayhem, and mermaids.
The poems in this issue further some of the motifs found in the fiction. Sandi Leibowitz and Melissa Frederick contemplate worlds ending; Olchar E. Lindsann discusses deicide while Edith Hope Bishop contemplates horrors that have become disturbingly everyday; Alexandra Seidel and Jennifer Crow complete the tour by taking us out to sea.
Our cover photograph, by Anne Sampson, depicts an eerie sculpture by Anita Allen, from her recent gallery show Beyond the Borders.
