Drace (dracenines) | 7415 comments There are errors to clean up with the book Jagannath.

1. All Editions: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

2. First Edition Kindle: Jagannath (ASIN B009FPQXJ8)

- Elizabeth Hand needs to be added with the Introduction role.

- The description is incorrect. It should read as follows:

Enter the strange and wonderful world of Swedish writer Karin Tidbeck with this feast of darkly fantastical stories. Whether through the falsified historical record of the uniquely weird Swedish creature known as the “Pyret” or the title story, “Jagannath,” about a biological ark in the far future, Tidbeck’s unique imagination will enthrall, amuse, and unsettle you. How else to describe a collection that includes “Cloudberry Jam,” a story that opens with the line “I made you in a tin can”? Marvels, quirky character studies, and outright surreal monstrosities await you in the collection NYT Bestseller Karen Joy Fowler calls “uncanny and unsettling, leaving you slightly dazed and more than a little enchanted.”

Welcome to the world of visionary Swedish author Karin Tidbeck, in which fairies haunt quiet towns and an immortal being discovers the nature of time – a world in which anything is possible. Alternately funny and frightening, moving and monstrous, Tidbeck’s dynamically diverse stories play wildly across many genres, shifting seamlessly from science fiction to magical realism to mythic fantasy. Amidst the real and unreal, the familiar and unfamiliar, the thirteen unforgettable tales in this collection make their perilous but beguiling home in the spaces in between.
