When The Bard Came Visiting #605008

A cantankerous old woman is charged with aiding a young girl. A male dryad finds his place in the world. Paralyzed from the neck down, a teenage sculpting prodigy is given a new opportunity to pursue her art again. A Victorian professor journeys across England to lecture on evolution, only to walk into trouble at every turn.

In this eclectic mix of stories, spanning historical fiction, magical realism, contemporary, and sci-fi, The Bard instructs only one thing: journey away with the words and see where they take you.
