Through the Drowsy Dark collects ten stories and nine poems by Nebula-
and Hugo-nominee Rachel Swirsky, "a terrific writer who's been making a
name for herself with a string of intelligent, perceptive stories," as
critic Jonathan Strahan characterizes her. In Through the Drowsy Dark,
Swirsky's characters struggle with too much and too little emotional
control, with heartbreak, with grief that has gone deep underground; they
search for nothingness, for difference, for oneness. One commits a terrible
crime because she believes it's the moral thing to do, while another digs
up a dead dog because the very thought of kissing it on the lips makes her
clitoris throb. Swirsky's explorations of the heart and mind are
fearless—and dangerous fictions indeed.
