Magic and Myth: Short Stories

By: Kathryn Trattner

Narrated by: Ode McGuire

The stories in Magic and Myth reveal the connection between everyday occurrences and the otherworldly. The place where we pause to reassure ourselves that the world is full of the mundane and unmagical in every way–even as we check beneath the bed for monsters.

Explore the point where myths and humanity collide and build a home, where unexpected magic crackles in the firelight, and the seasons gather around the dinner table. Crisscrossing these chapters are creatures from dreams and legends–love and horror are intertwined, revenge is sweeter than any summer evening, and desire can be enough to reshape reality.

This collection includes:

• Blackberry Baby - based on the fairy tale The Snow Child
• The Deer Woman - based on the myths of the Deer Woman
• Fire Watch - magical realism about the seasons
• The Black Cat - based on the myths about the boogeyman
• Tornado - magical realism flash fiction about the seasons
