I savored this collection and each story in it. I re-read many of them and will pick them up again when I need to be reconnected to beauty, mystery, magic, or love. This collection reignited a childhood love of fantasy and sci-fi.
Another Story or a Fisherman of the Inland Sea, The Finder, A Man of the People, Vaster than Empires but More Slow, and Buffalo Gals, Wont You Come Out Tonight, took me to new worlds and at times took my breath away. These ones all made me cry.
The Matter of Seggri, Forgiveness Day, A Woman's Liberation, and Paradises Lost transported me and the troubling questions those worlds raised remained in my thoughts for days after reading.
Dragonfly, and it's illustration of authentic magic and power, stirred something deep within me.
