At the Mouth of the River of Bees: Stories
The wrenching and provocative debut collection from the author of The Fox Woman and Fudoki. Johnson’s stories have won the Sturgeon and World Fantasy awards and, for the last three years running, the Nebula Award.
Johnson’s stories range from historical Japan (Sturgeon award winner “Fox Magicâ€) to metafictional explorations of story structure (“Story Kitâ€). Nebula award winners “Spar†and “Ponies†are perhaps most shocking and captivating, but each of the seventeen stories here is a highlight selected from Johnson’s more than two decades of work.
These stories feature cats, bees, wolves, dogs, and even that most capricious of animals, humans, and have been reprinted in The Year’s Best Fantasy & Horror, Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of the Year, and The Secret History of Fantasy.
At the Mouth of the River of Bees is one of the most anticipated debut science fiction short story collections in recent years.
