Czech Literary Portal & Goodreads Giveaway
The paperback edition of The Irreal Reader: Fiction & Essays from The Cafe Irreal was officially released today and mentioned in the Czech Literary Portal. A lot went into the creation of this anthology; naturally we're very proud of it. Below are a few different places where you can check it out. Reviews are appreciated!
The Irreal Reader
Available now from Guide Dog Books: The Irreal Reader collects the best fiction from The Cafe Irreal.
The Cafe Irreal: International Imagination, a pioneering web-based literary magazine, first went online in 1998 with the intention of publishing a type of fantastic fiction most often associated with writers such as Franz Kafka, Kobo Abe and Jorge Luis Borges. To this end, it has published more than 250 authors from over 30 countries. In the course of the past fifteen years, it has also seen its editors nominated for a World Fantasy Award and been named by Writer’s Digest as one of the Top 30 Short Story Markets.
In this anthology, edited by G.S. Evans and Alice Whittenburg, Guide Dog Books presents a selection of the fiction and essays from The Cafe Irreal that take us most definitively into the realm of the Irreal. These include pieces by Diploma de Honor Konex winner Ana María Shua (Argentina), Michal Ajvaz (winner of the Magnesia Litera prize in the Czech Republic), Pulitzer Prize winner Charles Simic, and Pushcart Prize winners Bruce Holland Rogers and Caitlin Horrocks.
