With Her Body
Lambda Award nominee 2004.
With Her Body presents three pieces of short fiction by the Nebula-, Lambda-, and Tiptree-award winning Nicola Griffith. Intense stories about hope, joy, the body, mainly joy and the body - feeling the world on our skin, the place where Us and Not-Us meet. Nicola Griffith writes about being as well as doing - about life and love and the fears that keep us from having what we want.
The women in these stories live in a world not quite like ours, where the jungle is alive with more than animals, music can be made with the body, and civilization can only end if we all give up...
