Contemporary

From the dawn of history, magicians and poets have sought the land of the dead-magicians by force of will, poets by the power of imagination.In The Book of Angels, fiction writer Michael Lynch is drawn into a chilling reality in which a ruthless magician employs the terror and commandments of magick-to know, to dare, to will, to keep silence-to harness the force of Lynch's imagination in a bid for the ultimate journey. Lynch's only weapon with which to defend himself and his family is his power to dream, the only recourse of his spirit, his desire to love.In an eerie journey to the furthest edge of mortality, magicians, witches, bad priests, teachers, and writers walk the streets of an everyday American world playing with life, imagining death.

Genre Fiction

Short Fiction. "In SHADOW BONES, Memmott pursues vectors that glance through sci-fi and fantasy on into other magical and imaginative spaces, never ceasing to pose the central ontological question: 'What does it mean to be human?'"--Brian Evenson. "For David Memmott, Speculative Northwest's secret weapon, reality in our age of Rust and Robots is about as stable as one of those particles in whats left of a Chernobyl core: always on the verge of shimmering into something that will take your breath away with its mythic resonance, wise magic, and compassionate imaginative fire. Onto the unknown!"--Lance Olsen. David Memmott is a Rhysling Award winner and a Fishtrap Fellow.

Science Fiction

Mapping a literary space uniquely his own, Evenson's CONTAGION AND OTHER STORIES pursues to a new level the crepescular and delirious exploration begun in his acclaimed and controversial ALTMANN'S TONGUE. In the O'Henry Award winning "Two Brothers," a minister breaks his leg while his sons watch then refuses to call an ambulance, remaining convinced even unto death that God will arrive to lift him up and make him whole. The self-acclaimed language specialist of "The Polygamy of Language" indiscriminately blends linguistics with murder. "Contagion" is a skewed retelling of the early history of barbed wire, which interweaves metaphysics and the Western genre. "Watson's Boy" shows a boy endlessly wandering the human equivalent of a conditioned response box while the protagonist of "By Halves" finds himself trapped in a relationship that may not exist. Throughout, Evenson's immaculate prose draws us mercilessly up to confront troubled and troubling lives that, astoundingly, are no less human than our own.
