Singing My Sister Down And Other Stories by Margo Lanagan
A haunting collection of short stories that blends lyrical, often mythic imagery with gritty realism to explore family, grief, ritual and the ugly strictures of small communities. Set in liminal, frequently coastal landscapes, the tales range from chilling communal punishments to intimate, uncanny transformations, all rendered in spare, vivid prose that lingers. Through recurring motifs of violence, love and loss, the stories interrogate how ordinary lives are shaped and broken by history, legend and desire.
