The collection of short stories by Canadian poet and writer Maryann Mycros gives a sense of the magic of life, in which the incomprehensible naturally coexists alongside the understandable and familiar, myth grows out of pragmatic and everyday reality and is embodied in each subsequent generation.
Thirteen stories are written in a simple, transparent language, more suitable for inner reflection. Perhaps that is why they give a sense of intimacy that cannot be created artificially and which allows you not only to grasp the plot of the story, but also to experience it and find yourself in it. Mycros' characters naturally accept the incomprehensible and mystical into their lives, deal with the evil eye and the evil spell, and know how to cast spells and talk to the dead. They do not lie to themselves, but at the same time they do not despair of their own truth, no matter how bitter it may be. The women of Mycros have their feet firmly planted on the ground where they have to create their lives. The stories are set in different countries, at different times and in different circumstances.
In the seemingly bizarre world of Maryann Mycros, there is an inspiration of search and acceptance, a desire to understand oneself and the world, and a sense of a mystical fusion of everything that was, is and will be.
