Omschrijving

In these dark works of female-led fantasy we are brought two stories of occult and supernatural possession the men on the working end of them find inescapable.

We open with Rafael Menton's "A Woman of Haiti Revisited". as Mr Menton describes how a smug, haughty and cynical professor, scornful of superstition and the occult, is brought to his knees – both figuratively and literally - before a conjure woman from the Indies… An island woman who is visiting London at the invitation of the professor's wealthier - and far more credulous - friend… A conjure woman with mesmeric abilities who will not only enslave his senses in all ways but see that his beautiful English-Rose fiancé takes a delight in doing the same… All this before insisting he accompany her back to Haiti to serve as a…

Theo Hopcraft's "Destin-Sur-Sarthe", follows and describes one travelling English wine-merchant's rendezvous with fate in north-west France. This after he is drawn by a strange compulsion to break off his journey home. Read on as Joshua Bentham finds himself ferried to a village he swears he hasn't visited in his life… Which does not explain why the village of Destin and the sinister female proprietor of the pensione in which he takes lodgings seems so familiar to him… Or the feline and irresistible niece about to introduce him to his future… A future he decidedly does not want!

Fantasy female-led fiction of a dark, moody, and believable kind for those readers with a desire to have a light shone on the more… outré …corners of their imaginations.
