Thirteen eerie, beguiling tales set in the twilight zone of the American South.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
From the Author:
These original stories incorporate my research into afterlife concepts and vanishing folkways of the American South, including African American and Celtic beliefs about spirits and death omens. Some stories are inspired by beliefs that stem from other mythologies as well, such as the idea that the dead must first cross a river or other body of water to reach the next world.
About the Author:
I am a great admirer of the well-crafted literary ghost stories of fine writers such as Sarah Orne Jewitt, Edith Wharton, Joyce Carol Oates, and many others.
Sherry Austin is a native of Charlotte, North Carolina and now lives in the Blue Ridge Mountains. For stories in MARIAH OF THE SPIRITS she won a Blumenthal Readers and Writers Award, and an award for literature from the North Carolina Arts Council, an agency funded by the National Endowment for the Arts.
