Tender: Stories
World Fantasy Award nominee 2018.
The first collection of short fiction from a rising star whose stories have been anthologized in the first two volumes of the Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy series and nominated for many awards. Some of Samatar's weird and tender fabulations spring from her life and her literary studies; some spring from the world, some from the void.
