CLOUD & ASHES: THREE WINTER'S TALES. Easthampton, MA: Small Beer Press, [2009]. Octavo, boards. First edition. CLOUD & ASHES collects three Winter’s Tales (“Jack Daw’s Pack,” “A Crowd of Bone,” and the longest, “Unleaving”) centering on folk traditions, harvest rites, the seasons, gods, and trickster figures. “Gilman's ‘A Crowd of Bone’ ... is dense, jammed with archaic words and neologisms ... but the story -- complex, tangled in narrative as well as syntax, and very dark -- rewards the most careful of readings." - The Washington Post Book World. “A Crowd of Bone" won the 2004 World Fantasy Award for best novella. CLOUD & ASHES won the 2009 Tiptree award. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. A review copy with publisher's promotional material laid in. (#158699).
