The Fortunate Isles

Lisa L. Hannett

3.83/5 (12 ratings)

Read Now Download Now

The Fortunate Isles collects fourteen tales of salt-crusted weirdness from the rugged, cold-clime harbour village of Barradoon...

Barradoon: the limit of worldly navigation; stronghold of sea-myths and ancient forces; a place of simmering tension and ruthless vengeance meted out by human and inhuman alike.

These densely wrought, boundlessly inventive stories form, in their totality, a singularly strange mosaic novel of sorts - ever twisting and writhing like a storm-charged ocean. Yet they are never out of the meticulous control of Lisa Hannett's masterly storytelling.

The table of contents is as follows:

Introduction by Kirstyn McDermott
Gutted
A Right Pretty Mate
Another Mouth
The Honey Stomach
The Escape
Out at the Shillingate Isles
A Tanglesmithed Tale
A Shot of Salt Water
The Widows Guild
Deep in the Drift, Spinning
Watersleeves
Shrithing Sandwards
Rewild
Ebbtide
