Now She Dreams of War and Other Stories from Transylvania

Zaher Alajlani\'s short stories are both haunting and exalting. In one breath, he dashes you to an existential dread, and in another, he sings with you about the fleeting beauties of life: the passion of young love, a long drink of good wine, and realization of unfettered dreams. Zaher\'s take on modern Gothicism is a voice all his own, and the tales he spins have a way of staying with you long after you\'ve read them. I highly recommend his latest tales. - Kimberly Phinney of The Way Back to Ourselves
