Synopsis

The Dedalus Book of Spanish Fantasy is an ambitious and wide-ranging collection of texts from the middle of the 19th century to the present day, by authors writing in Castilian, Basque, Catalan and Gallego.

"The Dedalus Book of Spanish Fantasy has many revelations for English-language readers on the lookout for something at once ancient and brand-new: the darkly baroque, the Goya-grotesque, or a surreal modernity, most of it touched by the forces of death or metamorphosis."
Faren Miller in Locus
