Abstract
A Practical Spellbook for the Bereft is a collection of short stories written in traditional and experimental forms. It draws inspiration from genres including surrealism, magical realism, fantasy, science fiction, and horror. This collection include themes of community, unexpected love, storytelling and, of course, time travel.
It’s really funny and also weird. Too bad you can’t read it.
