What’s going on with Narrelle right now? Why, this of course!
Anna Karenina Isn’t Dead
I’m so excited to have a story in Anna Karenina Isn’t Dead, published by Improbable Press and edited by Atlin Merrick with cover art by Claudia Caranfa.
The anthology is inspired by the idea of rewriting the (out of copyright) literary lives of female characters who got a raw deal in the original telling – from Anna Karenina and Dido to Wendy Darling and Annabelle Lee. Thirty-two stories give these women not just new endings – some of them get different paths altogether, which avoid those endings of suffering, madness and/or death. My story, “Metamorphosis”, sets Madame Butterfly on a different course.
You can pre-order the book at a discount until 29 February, 2024 – it will go back to full price on 1 March – from the publisher at:
