![]() I have been a huge fan of Jemisin since 2015 when I binge-read both her Inheritance trilogy and her Dreamblood duology. And in the Hugo award-nominated short story “The City Born Great,” a young street kid fights to give birth to an old metropolis’s soul. A black mother in the Jim Crow south must figure out how to save her daughter from a fey offering impossible promises. ![]() In a parallel universe, a utopian society watches our world, trying to learn from our mistakes. Dragons and hateful spirits haunt the flooded city of New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. ![]() In these stories, Jemisin sharply examines modern society, infusing magic into the mundane, and drawing deft parallels in the fantasy realms of her imagination. ![]() Publication Date: November 27th 2018 PUBLISHER’S DESCRIPTION ![]()
