Women's Weird 2

A sequel to Women’s Weird from 2019, which did very well. Direct sale preorders re doing very well. Cross-over market for readers looking for classic women’s writing, and for Weird / horror short stories. Thirteen stories, a completely new set of authors from the first volume. Wider geographical spread, from Canada, New Zealand, India, as well as USA and UK. We built this collection by looking for unknown women writers, and for hitherto ignored Weird fiction by very well-known writers. There are a great many houses and domestic interiors in this collection, but, unlike in Women’s Weird, it’s not the objects and inhabitants of the interiors that attract the Weird, but the rooms, walls, structures themselves which will chill you nicely. Cover image by Pierre-Louis Pierson, supplied by the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Probably well-known to photographers, but not to us. Chosen by Melissa because, once again, the woman is looking through an object to see the reader, mirroring how the stories work.
