Produktbeskrivning
The moon has fascinated humankind since the dawn of language, reflected here in ancient myths and folklore, joined by new tales from open submissions.
With tales from myth, folklore and modern writers, Moon Falling Short Stories brings a potent mix of superstition and belief that reaches back to the gods of Babylon, Ancient Egypt and Greece.
Khonsu, Innana, Artemis and Thoth are just a few of the deities who brought a mix of love, sensuality and war to the ancient perceptions of the world. In one tradition regarding the Ancient Japanese Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto, the moon, he was the estranged husband of the sun goddess Amaterasu, ever to chase her across the sky.
From the Cherokee there are tales of the Moon being held captive, with Coyote hurling the moon each night out of reach of rescue, and for the Celts of Ireland the Moon Goddess Rhiannon was a symbol of rest and wisdom, the Queen of the Fairies. And of course the moon brings to mind curses, howling wolves, the wolf moon and the harvest moon, while offering a guiding light at night for the weary traveller.
There are so many inspirations for the modern storyteller, many of whom submitted wonderful tales to this intimate portrait of the seductive, powerful moon.
New, contemporary and notable writers featured are: Colleen Anderson, V.M. Ayala, Hannah Birss, Elou Carroll, Alex Dartnell, Lauren D.
Fulter, Lora Gray, Sydney Paige Guerrero, Brandon Ketchum, Annika Barranti Klein, Amanda Cecelia Lang, A.Y. Lu, Sean MacKendrick, Tara Macpherson, R. Jean Mathieu, Soumya Sundar Mukherjee, Lee Murray, Nartana Premachandra, Corrine Pridmore, R.J. Ren, Zach Shephard, Ginger Strivelli, Kate Wilmot, Cassondra Windwalker, and Nemma Wollenfang.
These appear alongside classic work by Hans Christian Andersen, Algernon Blackwood, the Brothers Grimm, H.G. Wells and more, as well as folklore, myths and indigenous tales from around the world.
