Book-Three in the "Tales of Reversal" collection of female-led tales, from both past and future, opens first with a tale from the Eastern Seaboard of America at the beginning of the twentieth-century, before concluding with a more contemporary and European reversal in the present.
First up is Sandrine Bessancort's "Luella Miller Revisited", and during the early years of the twentieth-century the fiction of Edgar Allen Poe is undergoing a renewed popularity when a young and ambitious Baltimore journalist is sent to the provinces by his editor. An editor in search of a story likely to satisfy the need for sensation craved by his newspaper's circulation... What the young journalist discovers instead is a tale of murder, depravity, and human-bondage that will certainly satisfy his editor's demands... And, in the process, ensure the life he knows and loves will be altered beyond recognition.
Our final reversal is Malkin Jamali's "House of Servitude", as a man, betrayed by his wife and best-friend, disowned by his daughter - and having just spent two years in prison for bodily-harm upon the wife's lover - attempts to come to terms upon his release with the desert that awaits him in a Britain undergoing the self-harm of Brexit... Attempts on his part that prove unsuccessful... At least until he spots an ad that offers him hope... Hope, and a live-in position in a woman's household that will at least keep him from the mercies of the street... Even as it ensures he will never look upon his manhood in the same light again!
Believable female-led fantasy fiction for the reader who enjoys the exercise of the imagination.
