Authors include Charlotte Perkins Gilman (“The Giant Wistaria”), Edith Nesbit (“The Shadow”), Edith Wharton (“Kerfol”), May Sinclair (‘Where Their Fire Is Not Quenched”), Mary Butts (“With and Without Buttons”), and D K Broster (“Crouching At The Door”).Featuring stories that explore beyond the primarily domestic concerns of earlier supernatural fiction, Women’s Weird is sure to thrill new readers and delight these authors’ fans.
