A wife learns the secrets of her husband's sealskin coat. A young secretary becomes infatuated with a computer the size of a room. A sudden cold front brings with it a zombie infestation that's more nuisance than apocalypse.
These stories from speculative fiction writer Cassandra Clarke transform the present into a fairy tale and the past into science fiction. They are dreamy, eerie, lovely, and strange, and they do not see the world in black and white.
Cassandra Clarke graduated in 2006 from The University of St. Thomas with a bachelor's degree in English, and in 2008 she completed her master's degree in creative writing from The University of Texas at Austin.
She is currently living in Houston, Texas and is teaching English at the Lone Star College.
